Group for High Resolution Sea Surface Temperature (GHRSST) Level 2P datasets produced by the Remote Sensing Systems (REMSS) for a number of different sensors and platforms are now available. The datasets include global Subskin SST observations from the Advanced Microwave Scanning Radiometer (AMSR-2) on the Global Change Observation Mission (GCOM) GCOM-W1 Satellite. These datasets are in the GHRSST Data Processing Specification version 2 (GDS2) netCDF4 format.

Access is currently through FTP and OPeNDAP at locations such as (e.g., the
