Animation of Sea Surface Temperature and Drifter Buoy Movements, Jan. 1990 - Sep. 1996
Sea surface temperature images (SST) from Advanced High Resolution Radiometer (AVHRR) data from the NOAA polar-orbiting satellites are combined with drifter buoy data to create animations showing buoy movements on the changing SST field. The data are contained on one CDROM in Hobart.

Sea surface temperature (SST): The approximately twice daily NOAA Sea surface temperature images are a time series of data that is highly contaminated by cloud and other atmospheric effects. However by combining all the images over a period of 20 days and by looking at neighbouring pixels of each point a good estimate of the most likely uncontaminated temperature can be made. This reduces the approximately 40 megabytes of data over 20 days to one picture of about 0.1 megabytes.
