Avhrr imagery in the study of coastal upwellings

TLDR
In this article, a technology for processing AVHRR/NOAA multispectral data for supporting local oceanographic monitoring is described, and an algorithm is proposed for mapping the field of surface currents.
Abstract
A technology for processing AVHRR/NOAA multispectral data for supporting local oceanographic monitoring is described. An algorithm is proposed for mapping the field of surface currents. Accuracy in determination of sea surface temperatures is tested via comparison with in situ measurements in the coastal upwelling zone.
