1. Global analyses of sea surface temperature, sea ice, and night marine air temperature since the late nineteenth centuryJournal of Geophysical Research Atmospheres · 2003 · 11,492 citations

   We present the Met Office Hadley Centre's sea ice and sea surface temperature (SST) data set, HadISST1, and the nighttime marine air temperature (NMAT) data set, HadMAT1. HadISST1 replaces the global sea ice and sea surface temperature (GISST) data sets…

2. The ERA‐40 re‐analysisQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society · 2005 · 7,167 citations

   Abstract ERA‐40 is a re‐analysis of meteorological observations from September 1957 to August 2002 produced by the European Centre for Medium‐Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF) in collaboration with many institutions. The observing system changed considerably over this re‐analysis period, with assimilable…

3. An Improved In Situ and Satellite SST Analysis for ClimateJournal of Climate · 2002 · 4,690 citations

   A weekly 1° spatial resolution optimum interpolation (OI) sea surface temperature (SST) analysis has been produced at the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) using both in situ and satellite data from November 1981 to the present. The weekly product…
