Supplement 1 to Comparison of Annual ERSST.v3b and HADISST NINO3.4 SST (Not Anomaly) Data

##################
HADISST DATA

This post provides stand-alone illustrations of the HADISST NINO3.4 SST data used in the post Comparison of Annual ERSST.v3b and HADISST NINO3.4 SST (Not Anomaly) Data , without the distraction of the other dataset in the comparison charts. Included are Annual Average, Annual Maximum, and Annual Minimum NINO3.4 SST data, and the difference between the Annual Maximum and Minimum data. Graphs of raw and smoothed data (11-year running-average filter) are provided. Also provided is a comparison of NINO3.4 and Tropical SSTs, both datasets smoothed.

The Smith and Reynolds SST Posts DOES NOT LIST ALL SST POSTS. I stopped using ERSST.v2 data for SST when NOAA deleted it from NOMADS early in 2009.

Please use the search feature in the upper left-hand corner of the page for posts on specific subjects.

NOTE: I’ve discovered that some of the links to older posts provide blank pages. While it’s possible to access that post by scrolling through the history, that’s time consuming. There’s a quick fix for the problem, so if you run into an absent post, please advise me. Thanks.
