Global SST Model (ECCO)

  • Released Tuesday, September 13, 2005

Sea surface temperature plays a vital role in the behavior of the Earth's climate and weather. It is both a causal factor and a resulting effect of complex interactions of natural forces on Earth. NASA not only measures sea surface temperature from space using powerful scientific instruments, but it also studies temperature processes in advanced computer models. -Gretchen Cook-Anderson (GSFC)
