Product Description
Annual Maximum Sea Surface Temperature (SST) Anomaly: For each year during 1985-2021, and at each location, we provide the greatest SST Anomaly (i.e., the departure from the expected SST value at each location for that time of year, derived from the Monthly Climatology; see Climatology page). Values are derived using the Version 3.1 daily global 5km CoralTemp satellite SST data product.
