"This is based on the JPL monthly MUR SST v4.1 daily climatology (2003-2014) downloaded from ftp://mariana.jpl.nasa.gov/mur_sst/tmchin/seasonal/ .
The daily anomaly is created from the climatology and SST data which is downloaded daily from ftp://podaac-ftp.jpl.nasa.gov/allData/ghrsst/data/GDS2/L4/GLOB/JPL/MUR/v4.1/ to NOAA NMFS SWFSC ERD by erd.data@noaa.gov . For leap years, the day 365 climatology was used for day 366.
The data for the most recent 4 days is usually revised everyday. The data for other days is sometimes revised.
This monthly anomaly is a simple mean of the daily anomalies for a given month.

Using griddap to Request Data and Graphs from Gridded Datasets

griddap lets you request a data subset, graph, or map from a gridded dataset (for example, sea surface temperature data from a satellite), via a specially formed URL. griddap uses the OPeNDAP (external link) Data Access Protocol (DAP) (external link) and its projection constraints (external link).

The URL specifies what you want: the dataset, a description of the graph or the subset of the data, and the file type for the response.

griddap request URLs must be in the form
https://coastwatch.pfeg.noaa.gov/erddap/griddap/datasetID.fileType{?query}
For example,
https://coastwatch.pfeg.noaa.gov/erddap/griddap/jplMURSST41.htmlTable?analysed_sst[(2002-06-01T09:00:00Z)][(-89.99):1000:(89.99)][(-179.99):1000:(180.0)]
Thus, the query is often a data variable name (e.g., analysed_sst), followed by [(start):stride:(stop)] (or a shorter variation of that) for each of the variable's dimensions (for example, [time][latitude][longitude]).

For details, see the griddap Documentation.
