ElNino: Sea surface temperature data set
Description
Monthly sea surface temperatures from January 1951 to December 2007.format
An object of class sfts.source
National Weather Service Climate Prediction Center website at http://www.cpc.ncep.noaa.gov/data/indices/sstoi.indices. The data is the third column with the title NINO1+2.Details
These averaged monthly sea surface temperatures are measured by the different moored buoys in the "Nino region" defined by the coordinates 0-10 degree South and 90-80 degree West.References
