- Abstract:
-
The NOAA Coral Reef Watch (CRW) Enhanced 50-km (E-50) Satellite Coral Bleaching HotSpots product is part of the CRW experimental near-real-time global Enhanced 50-km (E-50) satellite coral bleaching thermal stress monitoring product suite that enhances the CRW operational near-real-time global 50-km satellite coral bleaching thermal stress monitoring product suite. The enhanced (E-50) product suite was launched on September 30, 2009. Its counterpart, the operational product suite, was implemented initially in 2000. Both product suites provide updated monitoring information twice-weekly. This metadata file provides information on the E-50 Coral Bleaching HotSpots product for both the most recent near-real-time updates and the archived E-50 HotSpots product, dating back to October 2007, when the E-50 HotSpots product first became available. A Coral Bleaching HotSpot is a specific type of sea surface temperature (SST) anomaly that measures the amount of SST exceeding a static coral bleaching threshold SST. It serves as a measure of instantaneous bleaching thermal stress and shows the occurrence, magnitude, and spatial distribution of the stress during the twice-weekly period ending on the day indicated in the product. All non-positive E-50 HotSpot values are recorded as zeros. A more detailed description of Coral Bleaching HotSpots can be obtained at <http://coralreefwatch.noaa.gov/satellite/methodology/methodology.html#hotspot>. The E-50 HotSpots product is derived from CRW's E-50 SST, based on near-real-time satellite data from the Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer (AVHRR) on some of NOAA's Polar Orbiting Environmental Satellites (POES), as with the operational SST. CRW's entire experimental E-50 satellite coral bleaching thermal stress monitoring product suite is based on the enhanced 50-km SST product. The E-50 HotSpots product provides two major improvements over the current operational 50-km HotSpots product: full coastal coverage and improved climatology. The E-50 SST product that this E-50 HotSpots product is based on produces SST data for areas closer to the coast globally. This is achieved through the use of a higher-resolution land mask and retrieval of satellite data in coastal regions excluded from analysis by the operational land mask. Availability of satellite data for coastal areas greatly improves monitoring of coral reef ecosystems, the majority of which occur along coasts. While the current operational SST product enables direct monitoring of only 40% of the world's coral reefs, the E-50 SST product suite uses the new 50-km land mask to provide SST monitoring for more than 99% of 50-km pixels that contain coral reefs globally. CRW's operational 50-km HotSpots product is sensitive to errors in the climatology (long-term average conditions) used in the analysis. The E-50 climatology, used to develop the E-50 product suite, improves the overall accuracy of CRW products. It uses the 1985-2006 Version 5.0 Pathfinder 4-km AVHRR SSTs to address known climatology errors in CRW's operational 50-km product suite. Errors include overestimation of the operational 50-km HotSpots in certain areas, such as the Gulf of Panama and Gulf of Oman regions. CRW's E-50 coral bleaching Degree Heating Weeks product (another key tool in the CRW E-50 product suite) is derived from the accumulation of the E-50 HotSpots and benefits from these same improvements. Related details, as well as other important information, are provided on the E-50 portion of the CRW web site: <http://coralreefwatch.noaa.gov/satellite/e50/index.html>. The E-50 HotSpots product is available in static image and Google Earth formats. The product, its detailed description, and available data formats and delivery mechanisms are accessible at <http://coralreefwatch.noaa.gov/satellite>, along with general CRW product information and access to other CRW products.
- Purpose:
-
The NOAA Coral Reef Watch program seeks to fully utilize space-based sea surface temperature (SST) observations, combined with in-situ data, to continually monitor for early indications of thermally-induced coral reef bleaching worldwide. A suite of monitoring and prediction products, including the product described in these metadata, has been developed by CRW as a decision support system to provide critical and timely coral reef environment information to the U.S. and international coral reef communities.

The accuracy of both the E-50 and operational HotSpots products depends on the accuracy of source satellite SSTs and bleaching threshold SSTs. A full evaluation and validation of CRW's E-50 and operational HotSpots products have not been completed yet. A preliminary evaluation revealed, however, that the operational HotSpots product, along with the coral bleaching Degree Heating Weeks product (another key tool in the CRW operational product suite), demonstrates remarkable success in detecting, monitoring, and predicting all large spatial scale mass coral bleaching events. Polar Orbiting Environmental Satellite (POES) AVHRR-SST values used for creating CRW 50-km SST analysis fields were accurate to within 0.5 degree Celsius and adjusted by in-situ buoy observations to best-approximate SST at the depth of one meter. However, when producing a complete, gap-filled SST analysis with global coverage, estimation of SST at the pixels covered by cloud may occasionally reduce the accuracy of SST at these pixels.

There is no spatial data gap existing in this data set. No change will be made to the original HotSpots data, but occasional revisions to some images may occur if an inaccuracy is detected in the image display of the data. New near-real-time HotSpots products will be continuously added into this data collection at scheduled routine data update times.

The E-50 Coral Bleaching HotSpots product was derived from this E-50 SST product.
- Process_Step:
-
- Process_Description:
-
A HotSpot is calculated as the amount of SST exceeding a static coral bleaching threshold SST. At each pixel, a coral bleaching threshold SST value is subtracted from the SST value to produce the Coral Bleaching HotSpots. See the CRW web site at: <http://coralreefwatch.noaa.gov/satellite/index.html> and suggested references listed above for details.
