Background: NOAA West Coast CoastWatch and

OceanWatch Produce satellite-based oceanic products and

distribute via Internet technology to a variety of users. Collaborate and provide training in applying satellite

remote sensing technology for fisheries and other marine science applications.

Collaborate with users in developing new satellite-derived products with emphasis on integrating data from multi-satellite sensors and platforms.

Provide near real-time satellite data support for IOOS west coast regional associations and PaCOOS.

Satellite Ocean Data and Data Products

Include those from satellite sensors that measure •SST

•Ocean color

•Ocean winds, and

•Sea surface height.

Typical OceanWatch Satellite Ocean Data Products

• Eastern North and Central Pacific Ocean area from coasts of North and Central American to the Dateline (1800W).

• Examples include satellite-derived SST, chlorophyll concentration, SSH, winds, and ocean currents.
