Summary

The Scripps Institution of Oceanography ocean temperature climatology
was derived from the NODC Global Ocean Temperature/Salinity data set
(1955-1988) and the Global Temperature/Salinity Pilot Project (GTSPP)
data set (1989-1994). Temperatures were interpolated at 15 standard
levels from 0 to 800 meters. The climatological series was based on
the January ... 1980-December 1989 data.

Data from the Joint World Meteorological
Organization/Intergovernmental Oceanographic Commission Technical
Commision for Oceanography and Marine Meteorology (JCOMM) Products
Bulletin Data Products. The organization was formally known as the
Integrated Global Ocean Services System (IGOSS) Data Products
Bulletin.
