Abstract

In this paper, an operational retrieval algorithm is described to infer sea surface temperature (SST) using measurements from the Advanced Microwave Scanning Radiometer-2 (AMSR-2) aboard the Global Change Observation Mission-Water. The algorithm exploits AMSR-2 observations from 12 channels (6-36 GHz, horizontally and vertically polarized), after being corrected for residual calibration biases, to retrieve SST using a statistical based scheme. The Algorithm performance is assessed and results are compared to models and other independent data products.
