Short summary
The ocean is one of the important components of the ocean–atmosphere coupling system. Sea surface temperature (SST) is the basis for the interaction between the ocean and the atmosphere, and it characterizes the combined results of ocean heat and dynamic processes. The variability of SST in the northwest Pacific has been studied on seasonal, annual and interannual scales based on the monthly datasets of ERSST and OISST.
