Unknown Unknown Pathfinder 4km HDF files NOAA 2004-01-01 Range 1985-01 2004-12 These global monthly SST HDF files were used to create GeoTif files ofspecified region. | Source Geospatial Form: unregistered | Type of Source Media: Pathfinder 4km HDF files 1 The global unprojected Pathfinder SST files were received in 4km resolution.They were subset to the US and then assigned proper geofererencing coordinates.The images were reprojected, resampled down to 1.1km resolution, and subset againfor the final geotif output currently available. Software used was PCI Geomatica9.0 and EASI programming. The final Geotif files are 8 bit files. In orderto get SST (in degrees Celsius)from the 8 bit numbers the following equationshould be applied:SST (deg C) = ((8bit# * 0.15) + (-3.0))An EASI program was run on the output GeoTif files to create seasonal meansfrom the monthly SST data using the following months:Winter= December (of the previous year), January, February (of the following year)(Example: Winter 1985 = December 1984, January 1985, February 1985)Fall= September, October, NovemberSpring= March, April, MaySummer= June, July, August 2005-01-01T00:00:00 gov.noaa.nmfs.inport:39211 Tyler Christensen 2017-04-05T12:51:13 SysAdmin InPortAdmin 2025-05-15T19:16:11 2017-11-09 National Centers for Coastal Ocean Science NCCOS 1002 Public No No 2017-11-09 1 Year 2018-11-09
