| Zusammenfassung |
| The time series of satellite infrared AVHRR data from 1985 to 2005 has been
used to produce a daily series of optimally interpolated SST maps over the
regular grid of the operational MFSTEP OGCM model of the Mediterranean
basin. A complete validation of this OISST (Optimally Interpolated Sea
Surface Temperature) product with in situ measurements has been performed in
order to exclude any possibility of spurious trends due to instrumental
calibration errors/shifts or algorithms malfunctioning related to local
geophysical factors. The validation showed that satellite OISST is able to
reproduce in situ measurements with a mean bias of less than 0.1 K and RMSE
of about 0.5 K and that errors do not drift with time or with the percent
interpolation error. |
