  Title Climate Data Issues from an Oceanographic Remote Sensing Perspective Type Book Chapter
  Year 2011 Publication Remote Sensing of the Changing Oceans Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume Issue Pages 7-32  
  Keywords Oceanographic satellite sensors; Scatterometers; Altimeters; microwave radiometers; infrared and ocean color sensors; winds; sea surface temperature; air-sea fluxes; international cooperation for climate quality data; sampling; consistency; archiving and distribution  
  Abstract In this chapter we review several climatologically important variables with a history of observation from spaceborne platforms. These include sea surface temperature and wind vectors, altimetric estimates of sea surface height, energy and water vapor fluxes at the sea surface, precipitation over the ocean, and ocean color. We then discuss possible improvements in sampling for climate and climate change definition. Issues of consistency of different data sources, archiving and distribution of these types of data are discussed. The practical prospect of immediate international coordination through the concept of virtual constellations is discussed and applauded.
