Hourly SST and LW flux data from MSG avaialable
Hourly SST and LW flux data products derived from the MSG-SEVIRI are now avauilable from the EUMETSAT Ocean and Sea Ice Satellite Applications Facility (OSI-SAF). These data have been developed in response to discussions at the GDS-TAG meeting during the 6th GHRSST-PP Science Team Meeting for diurnal variability investigations. Data are available via ftp from ftp://ftp.ifremer.fr/ifremer/cersat/products/gridded/experimental-cms/. Three netCDF files are available for each day: one contaning 24 SST fields at 0.05 deg horizontal resolution, a second file containing 24 correponding solar irradiances and longwave irradiances and a third file containing maps of solar and long wave fluxes integrated obver a 24 hour period.
Data are available from December 1st 2005 to present and further details can be found in the safo1h.doc file available at the ftp site.
