2000 · Short film
Synopsis
This image shows the difference in sea surface temperature (SST) between current conditions and a normal SST for this time of year (red is 5 degrees C above normal, blue is 5 degrees C below normal,) combined with sea surface height anomaly (shown by the shading of the ocean surface,) and sea surface wind anomaly (represented by arrows.) Current SST is measured by the Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission Microwave Imager, while sea surface height anomaly was measured by TOPEX/Poseidon, and the…
