Created using data from the Medspiration project, this image shows the Mediterranean Sea surface temperature. The Medspiration products consist of daily high-resolution sea-surface temperature data over the Mediterranean and are derived from the combination of in situ data and satellite data. The information illustrates how warm the water is in the eastern Mediterranean. The European Space Agency’s Sentinel-3 mission for GMES also provides data on sea-surface temperature.
