Global ocean coverage is provided by this Terra MODIS Level-2 product, which retrieves sea surface temperature from mid-wave infrared bands near 4 µm. The data is produced in near real-time by NASA's Ocean Biology DAAC, offering a snapshot from a single orbit, though with suboptimal calibration inputs. SST4 measurements are designed for nighttime use and can complement traditional split-window SST in humid or tropical conditions.
