Short summary
The main goals are to study the performance of gridded SST datasets in coastal waters by comparing to homogenized in situ SST records. In recognizing that local data may reflect local effects, we focus on the dominant EOFs of the in situ SSTs and localized gridded datasets, examining patterns, variabilities, and trends. We conclude that gridded datasets need improvement in the pre-satellite era by reexamining in detail archives of local SST records in many data-sparse regions.
