Although its fluctuation decreases, the mean of the sea surface temperature around New Zealand seems to gradually increase as the summer arrives in the southern hemisphere. This trend can be seen in other statistics as well.
The data used comes from SST and SST Anomaly, NOAA Global Coral Bleaching Monitoring, 5km, V.3.1, Monthly, 1985-Present. This map is created with O2 where you can load the various satellite data. This sea surface temperature data will be available soon on O2.
You can create an account directly on O2 to access the data and visualizations.
