Table 2.
Summary statistics from the comparison of SOCAT SST minus the satellite reference SST at both monthly 1° and the daily native resolution of the reference SST dataset (CCI-SSTv3.0 = ~5 km; OI-SSTv2.1 = ~25 km).
| Dataset | Monthly 1° | Daily full resolution | ||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Mean (°C) | Median (°C) | Std, σ (°C) | Robust Std, σr (°C) | Mean (°C) | Median (°C) | Std, σ (°C) | Robust Std, σr (°C) | |
| CCI-SSTv3.0 | 0.12 | 0.1 | 1.04 | 0.62 | 0.11 | 0.07 | 0.66 | 0.31 |
| OI-SSTv2.1 | 0.11 | 0.1 | 1.07 | 0.67 | 0.11 | 0.1 | 0.80 | 0.48 |
The statistics are standard deviation (Std, σ) and robust standard deviation (Robust Std, σr).
