2 Group for High Resolution Sea Surface Temperature http://www.ghrsst.org 1.Why Sea Surface Temperature (SST) and why GHRSST (Group for High Resolution SST) 1.GHRSST Data Flow 2.GHRSST in the International Landscape 3.Planned Future 4.Summary 2 Outline

3 Group for High Resolution Sea Surface Temperature http://www.ghrsst.org Why SST : Storms Kerry A. Emanuel (April 2010) 3

4 Group for High Resolution Sea Surface Temperature http://www.ghrsst.org Why SST: Rainfall variability Giannini, Biasutti, Held and Sobel, Climatic Change, 2008 Rainfall EOF’s Long-term change Correlated SST 4

5 Group for High Resolution Sea Surface Temperature http://www.ghrsst.org Why: Climate change 1961-1990 average: 13.97 C Source : BoM graphics from HadCRUT3v data Global ocean heat content in the upper 700 m. Climate Change Indicators in the United States, p 36, EPA 430-R-10-007, April 2010. Heat content (10 22 joules) 5

6 Group for High Resolution Sea Surface Temperature http://www.ghrsst.org Motivation : Oceanography Surface Trend (ºC/10 yrs) 1950-2010 Source : BoM graphics from HadCRUT3v data SST related science in Oceanography : - air/sea flux - currents, eddies, fronts - AMO - trends in all of the above 6

7 Group for High Resolution Sea Surface Temperature http://www.ghrsst.org 7 Ocean modelling and forecasting NWP (hurricanes, seasonal-interannual rainfall variability) Climate variability and change Ecosystems (habitats, aquaculture) Fisheries Navy acoustic signal processing Why SST ?

9 Group for High Resolution Sea Surface Temperature http://www.ghrsst.org Why GHRSST ? GHRSST IX (2008): “To develop and nurture cooperation and progress at the world scale in the subject area of satellite Sea Surface Temperature”

10 Group for High Resolution Sea Surface Temperature http://www.ghrsst.org The aim of GHRSST is to develop and nurture cooperation and progress at the world scale in the subject area of satellite Sea Surface Temperature GHRSST establishes consensus and develops cooperation to: –Facilitate easy and diverse access and application of SST data through coordinated data assembly and analysis systems –Facilitate the advancement of SST science, tools and techniques –Foster expertise in SST measurements at all levels and provide best practice advice to users –Optimize the quality of SST data through inter-comparisons, testing, calibration and validation –Maintain and nurture the link between the SST Scientific and Operational users of SST measurements –Conduct efficient re-analysis of SST data and develop the Modern era SST ECV 3. GHRSST aims and achievements ✔
