TL;DR: The work in this article reviewed progress versus the challenges set out 10 years ago in a previous paper, highlight remaining and new research and development challenges for the next 10 years (such as the need for sustained continuity of passive microwave SST using a 6.9 GHz channel), and conclude with needs to achieve an integrated global high-resolution SST observing system, with focus on satellite observations exploited in conjunction with in situ SSTs.

Evaluation of the ERA5 Sea Surface Skin Temperature with Remotely-Sensed Shipborne Marine-Atmospheric Emitted Radiance Interferometer Data
Bingkun Luo,Peter J. Minnett +1 more
TL;DR: Overall, the ERA5 SSTskin has high correlation with ship-based radiometric measurements, with an average difference of~0.2 K with a Pearson correlation coefficient (R) of 0.993, but parts of the discrepancies are related to dust aerosols and variability in air-sea temperature differences.

Toward Improved Validation of Satellite Sea Surface Skin Temperature Measurements for Climate Research
Craig Donlon,Peter J. Minnett,Chelle L. Gentemann,T. J. Nightingale,I. J. Barton,Brian Ward,M. J. Murray +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a long-term global satellite SST skin validation strategy is proposed based on these observations, which is tested using SSTskin observations from the Along Track Scanning Radiometer, which are shown to be accurate to approximately 0.17 6 0.07 K rms.
