AMSR-E Global Anomalous Sea Surface Temperature Data Used to Forecast 2003 Hurricane Season
This animation show a year in the life of anomalous global ocean temperatures, June 2, 2002, to May 11, 2003. Green indicates the coolest water, yellow the warmest.

The Advanced Microwave Scanning Radiometer (AMSR-E) on the Aqua satellite is able to take measurements through clouds to provide this sea surface temperature data.
