Short summary
Sea surface temperature (SST) is related to ocean heat content, an important topic in the debate over global warming. In this paper, we propose a novel SST-predicting method based on the hybrid improved EMD algorithms and BP neural network method. SST prediction results based on the hybrid EEMD-BPNN and CEEMD-BPNN models are compared and discussed. A case study of SST in the North Pacific shows that the proposed hybrid CEEMD-BPNN model can effectively predict the time-series SST.
