NOAA OceanWatch – Central PacificHow are SST data used? Data is used in various ways: • Public Users (recreational & commercial fishing [HIBT]) • By-catch reduction (TurtleWatch) • Oceanographic Monitoring (EddyWatch) • Research Applications (generation of TS analyses, stdev., climatologies, etc) • Oceanographic Research Cruise Support
