Description
The NOAA Global Surface Temperature Dataset (NOAAGlobalTemp) is a blended product from two independent analysis products: the Extended Reconstructed Sea Surface Temperature (ERSST) analysis and the land surface temperature (LST) analysis using the Global Historical Climatology Network (GHCN) temperature database. The data is merged into a monthly global surface temperature dataset dating back from 1880 to the present. The monthly product output is in gridded (5 degree x 5 degree) and time series formats. The product is used in climate monitoring assessments of near-surface temperatures on a global scale. The changes from version 4 to version 5 include an update to the primary input datasets: ERSST version 5 (updated from v4), and GHCN-M version 4 (updated from v3.3.3). Version 5 updates also include a new netCDF file format with CF conventions. This dataset is formerly known as Merged Land-Ocean Surface Temperature (MLOST).
