seasonal_oisst_anom.RdData include seasonal time series of sea-surface temperature anomalies on the Northeast Continental Shelf. These data were derived from the NOAA Optimum Interpolation SST High Resolution data set (NOAA OISST V2). The 1982-2010 climatology was used to calculate anomalies.
seasonal_oisst_anom492 observations in 4 columns
Value: SST anomaly in degrees C.
EPU: Ecological Production Unit that data were collected from.
Var: Specifies season of anomaly.
Time: Year.
Seasons are defined as: Fall = October, November, December; Winter = January, February, March; Spring = April, May, June; Summer = July, August, September.
