Sea surface temperature anomalies in Europe Seas, Jan. 2020
This raster dataset represents the Sea Surface Temperature (SST) anomalies, i.e. changes of sea temperatures, in the European Seas.
The dataset is based on the map "Mean annual sea surface temperature trend in European seas" by Istituto Nazionale di Geofisica e Vulcanologia (INGV), which depicts the linear trend in sea surface temperature (in °C/yr) for the European seas over the past 25 years (1989-2013).
Since all changes of sea temperatures can be considered to have an impact on the marine environment, the pressure layer includes absolute values of SST anomalies, i.e. negative/decreasing temperature trends were changed to positive values so that they represent a pressure. The original data was in a 1° grid format but was converted to a 100 km resolution, adapted to the EEA 10 km grid and clipped with the area of interest.
This dataset has been prepared for the calculation of the combined effect index, produced for the ETC/ICM Report 4/2019 "Multiple pressures and their combined effects in Europe's seas" available on: https://www.eionet.europa.eu/etcs/etc-icm/etc-icm-report-4-2019-multiple-pressures-and-their-combined-effects-in-europes-seas-1.

The dataset is based on the map "Mean annual sea surface temperature trend in European seas" by Istituto Nazionale di Geofisica e Vulcanologia (INGV), which depicts the linear trend in sea surface temperature (in °C/yr) for the European seas over the past 25 years (1989-2013). More information about this dataset here: https://www.eea.europa.eu/data-and-maps/figures/mean-annual-sea-surface-temperature-1.
The SST input data is based on bias adjusted in situ measurements. To extend the analysis over most of the data-sparse oceanic regions, reduced space optimal interpolation was applied (Kaplan et al. 1997).
Since all changes of sea temperatures can be considered to have an impact on the marine environment, the pressure layer includes normalised absolute values of SST anomalies.
The original data was in a 1° grid format but was converted to a 100km resolution raster - but adapted to the EEA 10 km grid to it could be clipped with and conform with the EEA 10 km shoreline.
