What Does GISST Stand For?

GISST stands for Global Sea Ice And Sea Surface Temperature

GISST, or Global Sea Ice And Sea Surface Temperature, is a comprehensive scientific initiative focused on monitoring and analyzing sea ice extent and sea surface temperature variations across global oceans. By integrating satellite data, oceanographic measurements, and climate models, GISST aims to provide critical insights into climate change impacts, marine ecosystem health, and weather patterns, thereby supporting informed decision-making in environmental policy and research.
