PWC satellite-marine products / Laurie Neil, satellite meteorologist.: En57-44/85-006E-PDF

"The lack of various types of data over the data-sparse eastern Pacific Ocean can be overcome, to some extent, through full utilization of GOES satellite imagery. Over the past few months a number of products have been developed at the Pacifc Weather Centre (PWC) to mitigate the effects of the scarcity of this data. This paper will discuss three of them ... The three products are: a Sea Surface Temperature Analysis (SST Chart), Surface Wind Estimates over Offshore Areas (MARSAT Wind Chart), and a depiction of Areas of Fog and Low Cloud (SAT-FOG Chart)."
