Summary

Abstract: A Group for High Resolution Sea Surface Temperature (GHRSST) Level 4 sea surface temperature analysis produced daily on an operational basis at the JPL Physical Oceanography DAAC using weighted averages on a regional 0.011 degree grid over the oceans off North and Central America (62N- 20S, 165W - 30W). This Research to Operations (RTO) analysis is based upon a composite of either nighttime or ...

of 50 feet or more, or with a normal storage capacity of 5000 acre-feet or
more, or with a maximum storage capacity of 25,000 acre-feet or more. Dams
outside of the 50 States, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands are not
included, nor are dams for which there is no positional information in the
National Inventory of Dams.
