Original Note:
NOAA’s sea temperature dataset is not actual collected data but a reconstruction. The data from land temperatures comes from ground stations which are often installed in areas experiencing urbanization. The surrounding asphalt has been documented to create heat islands. https://www.ncei.noaa.gov/products/extended-reconstructed-sst https://t.co/yZUrPLzPFp https://twitter.com/MorlockP/status/1679838210086641668?s=20
