In Indonesia, there is now no operational sea surface temperature (SST) monitoring for such activities as oceanography, climatology or fishery. Indeed, until 1986 the Indonesian Institute of Aeronautics and Space (LAPAN) required NOAA data without atmospheric correction. It is even worse that local hardware constraints prevent any operational monitoring with mainframe cornputers. By analysing NOAA data with microcomputers, the methodology presented in this paper intends to fill this gap. It was tested with the study of large scale SST features in Indonesia from July 1981 to June 1985. Digital data were provided by digitizing 208 weekly SST charts' of NOAA-NESS |
