Analysis techniques

Analysis techniques for the sea surface temperature (SST) intercomparison were discussed. Systematic differences between various measurement techniques were identified and examined. This in turn might reveal areas for needed improvement in the SST retrieval algorithms or, at the very least, a clearer understanding of the limitations of each sensor.

Three-way partitioning of sea surface temperature measurement error

Given any set of three 2 degree binned anomaly sea surface temperature (SST) data sets by three different sensors, estimates of the mean square error of each sensor estimate is made. The above formalism performed on every possible triplet of sensors. A separate table of error estimates is then constructed for each sensor.
