Data sources

Weather data
Data obtained from the NASA Langley Research Center (LaRC) POWER Project funded through the NASA Earth Science/Applied Science Program
Reanalysis (weather model constrained by observations) on a coarse grid of about 50 km. Values represent a large area and can differ from local conditions, especially on islands, coasts and in mountains. Snow depth is the model value for the grid cell, not the depth on the slopes. No sunshine duration.
Reanalysis (weather model constrained by observations)
Reanalysis values represent a grid cell (approx. 25–50 km) and may differ from local measurements on coasts, islands and in mountains.
Sea temperature
MUR SST data were provided by JPL under support by NASA MEaSUREs program; accessed via NOAA CoastWatch ERDDAP
Daily multi-scale ultra-high resolution (≈ 1 km) analysis of satellite measurements (infrared, microwave) and in-situ data. Represents the foundation temperature below the daily warm surface layer. (Satellite and in-situ analysis)
