The Sea Surface Temperature (SST) sub-facility produces 1-minute average data products. Observed data are 1-minute median SST values and are retrieved from the vessel once an hour. High-resolution 1-minute median data are available in the delayed mode approximately every 3 months, these were produced in delayed mode using visual (manual) inspection of the quality flags after the data had been run through the automated quality control software at the Bureau of Meteorology The data products are produced from data from 3 ships: L'Astrolabe, Xutra Buhm and Wana Buhm, within this sub-facility working in the Australian region, Southern Ocean and South-East Asia.
L'Astrolabe is a research vessel operating in Antarctic and sub-Antarctic waters during the summer period (usually October through March). 1-minute averaged SST (from the SBE 38 temperature sensor) and thermosalinograph salinity data are logged on the vessel and manually retrieved by CMAR staff after the voyage is completed.

L'Astrolabe is a research vessel operating in Antarctic and sub-Antarctic waters during the summer period (usually October through March). 1-minute averaged SST (from the SBE 38 temperature sensor) and thermosalinograph salinity data are logged on the vessel and manually retrieved by CMAR staff after the voyage is completed. The data are run through the Bureau of Meteorology's automated quality control system followed by visual inspection and adjustment, if necessary, of the quality flags. This data stream is temporarily discontinued (2013). An SBE 48 hull-temperature sensor installed on both the MV Xutra Bhum and the MV Wana Buhm, produces observations of SST every 10 seconds. These data are recorded into 1 minute median SST values on the vessel and manually retrieved by Bureau of Meteorology staff approximately monthly. The data are run through the Bureau of Meteorology's automated quality control system followed by visual inspection and adjustment, if necessary, of the quality flags. Both of these data streams have now been discontinued (April 2013).

The research vessels (RV Cape Ferguson and RV Solander) of the Australian Institute of Marine Science (AIMS) routinely record along-track (underway) measurements of near-surface water temperature, salinity, chlorophyll (fluorescence) and turbidity (NTU) during scientific operations in the tropical waters of northern Australia, particularly the Great Barrier Reef (GBR). All data records include sampling time (UTC), position (Latitude, Longitude) and water depth (under keel).
Data are recorded at 10 second intervals. Data are measured with a Seabird SBE38 thermometer, Seabird SBE21 thermosalinograph and Wetlabs ECO-FLNTU-RT (optical sensor for chlorophyll fluorescence and turbidity). The turbidity data (NTU) are currently regarded as provisional in the absence of local validation due to intermittent bubble contamination. The sampling intakes are located at depths of 1.9m (RV Cape Ferguson) and 2.5m (RV Solander).
The data is used to inform spatial patchiness of these variables an[...]

Enhancement of Measurements on Ships of Opportunity (SOOP)-Air Sea Flux sub-facility collects underway meteorological and oceanographic observations during scientific and Antarctic resupply voyages in the oceans adjacent to Australia. Data product is quality controlled observations. Research Vessel Real Time Air-Sea Fluxes, equips the Marine National Facility (MNF) (Research Vessels Southern Surveyor and Investigator), the Australian Antarctic Division (Research and Supply Vessels Aurora Australis and Nuyina), and Research Vessel Tangaroa with "climate quality" meteorological measurement systems, capable of providing high quality air-sea flux measurements and delivered to researchers on a near real-time basis. Obtaining the full set of air-sea fluxes essential for climate studies requires observations of: wind, air and sea temperature, humidity, pressure, precipitation, long- and short-wave radiation. The existing ship meteorological sensor sets are completed with IMOS instruments[...]
![GHRSST Level 2P Global Sea Surface Skin Temperature from the MODIS [...]](https://d1ewbp317vsrbd.cloudfront.net/3d3b217a-ba1c-4d32-983d-5ecf19314f12.png)
NASA produces skin sea surface temperature (SST) products from the Infrared (IR) channels of the Moderate-resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) onboard the Terra satellite. Terra was launched by NASA on December 18, 1999, into a sun synchronous, polar orbit with a daylight descending node at 10:30 am, to study the global dynamics of the Earth atmosphere, land and oceans. The MODIS captures data in 36 spectral bands at a variety of spatial resolutions. Two SST products can be present in these files. The first is a skin SST produced for both day and night observations, derived from the long wave IR 11 and 12 micron wavelength channels, using a modified nonlinear SST algorithm intended to provide continuity with SST derived from heritage and current NASA sensors. At night, a second SST product is produced using the mid-infrared 3.95 and 4.05 micron channels which are unique to MODIS; the SST derived from these measurements is identified as SST4. The SST4 product has lower unc[...]
