Sensors for Sea Surface Temperature
Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer(AVHRR)
http://www.oso.noaa.gov/operation
The Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer is a series sensor for TIROS-N (1978) and following NOAA polar orbiting satellite. NOAA series satellite transmits its observation data to the ground by the High Resolution Picture Transmission (HRPT) signal in the real-time. The HRPT signal could be captured by the simple receiving station all over the world.
