Overview of validation results. Robust standard deviation (a) and median discrepancy (b) for comparison of CCI ATSR and AVHRR SSTs with drifting buoys. Depth-depth validation results are shown, in which satellite skin SSTs have been adjusted to 10:30 am/pm local time and in situ records have been temporally interpolated to the same time. (c) Time/latitude variation of analysis minus drifting-buoy SST differences, averaged zonally and monthly.
