AbstractThe ESA Sea Surface Temperature Climate Change Initiative (ESA SST CCI) dataset accurately maps the surface temperature of the global oceans over the period 1991 to 2010 using observations from many satellites. The data provides an independently quantified SST to a quality suitable for climate research. The ESA SST CCI ATSR (Along-Track Scanning Radiometer) Long Term Product Version 1.0 consists of stable, low-bias sea surface temperature (SST) data covering the period 08/1991 - 12/2010. The L3U data product provides these SST data regridded onto a global longitude-latitude grid. Please note, the version 1.0 data described here has now been superseded by the version 1.1 data product as described in Merchant, C. J., Embury, O., Roberts-Jones, J., Fiedler, E., Bulgin, C. E., Corlett, G. K., Good, S., McLaren, A., Rayner, N., Morak-Bozzo, S. and Donlon, C.
