  • Abstract
    The Marine Environmental Data Services Branch has developed capabilities to generate machine-contoured displays of oceanographic variables in both horizontal and vertical planes of the oceans. Grid interpolation and optimum interpolation techniques are presented.Temperature anomaly maps of near real time in-situ observations are used to describe the capabilities of both methods to depict oceanographic variables.
