Experimental Eddy Products

Example of MESI product [zoomed from global] centered on the Atlantic Ocean.

The sea surface height team in NOAA’s Laboratory for Satellite Altimetry produces two experimental mesoscale eddy products:

  • Multiparameter Eddy Significance Index (MESI)
  • MUltiparameter NRT System for Tracking Eddies Retroactively (MUNSTER)

NOAA CoastWatch co-gridded VIIRS SST from ACSPO

Global map projection displaying sea surface temperature data

NOAA CoastWatch co-gridded VIIRS SST products are Level 3 daily composites in compatible format and projection with other CoastWatch Level 3 sector and global products (such as CoastWatch sector VIIRS ocean color).  Twenty four CoastWatch sector files mapped to equatorial projection that cover the globe (see Description tab for sector definitions) two polar stereographic sectors in 750 m nominal, native resolution and a global, 4 km resolution, single file mapped product is also available. These CoastWatch Level 3 products are generated from ACSPO L2P SST as input.
