Much of the oceans on lower half of the SOUTHERN HEMISPHERE below say 30S have light blue or dark blue shades indicating a positive anomaly of 1 to 0.5 C. Can you clarify?MATThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17767486027523720248noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2220966763638300672.post-56223940513236953972009-06-11T09:02:04.297-04:002009-06-11T09:02:04.297-04:00KM, you asked, "Why big(+) jump in southern o...KM, you asked, "Why big(+) jump in southern ocean sst's."<br /><br />I presume you mean Southern Hemisphere, because the rise in Southern Ocean SST anomalies wasn't atypical and appeared to be in line with ENSO variability. <br /><br />As noted in my follow-up post here...<br />http://bobtisdale.blogspot.com/2009/06/corrections-to-oiv2-sst-data-for-may.html<br />...NOAA/CDC has updated the SST data for May 2009, decreasing SST anomalies in the Southern Hemisphere and raising them in the Northern Hemisphere. But the rise in the South Atlantic still appears unusual so I'll take a look at it in an upcoming post and try to isolate at least the area responsible for most of the rise. <br /><br />RegardsBob Tisdalehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15462377647970214137noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2220966763638300672.post-76938050952537792772009-06-11T08:40:52.943-04:002009-06-11T08:40:52.943-04:00Bob, your doing great job.
