Preferred term

NOAA PSL Sea Snake  

Definition

  • Floating “sea snake” thermometers measure the near-surface ocean temperature accurately and robustly within 0.1 m of the surface, where solar warming affects the ocean temperature. These temperature measurements are used to verify satellite sea surface temperature retrievals and to track the exchange of heat and moisture between the ocean and atmosphere. (en)
