Global Level 4 GHRSST CMC 0.2deg sea surface temperature (SST) data produced by the Canadian Meteorological Centre (CMC) are now available from the PO.DAAC. These data are in the new GDS2 format using netCDF4. This particular Level 4 dataset is on a 0.2 deg grid and produced once a day. Data are available from September 1991 to present.
