Ocean Remote Sensing: Sea Surface Temperature Imagery
http://fermi.jhuapl.edu/avhrr/sst.html

Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory


This site presents rapidly processed estimates of sea surface temperature for various regions along the east coast of the United States, including the Gulf Stream, Chesapeake Bay, the Gulf of Mexico and the Bahamas. The imagery includes both single pass data and composite data from multiple passes. Included at this site is a primer on the measurement of sea surface temperature. Additional links satellite links are provided. See related links for the topics.
