Introduction to Indicator

The raw bottom temperature product is in a horizontal 1/12 degree grid between 1959 and 2023 and is made of daily bottom temperature estimates from:

Bias-corrected ROMS-NWA (ROMScor) between 1959 and 1992 which was regridded in the same 1/12degree grid as GLORYS using bilinear interpolation; GLORYS12v1 in its original 1/12 degree grid between 1993 and 2023-08-29; and PSY in it's 1/12 degree grid from 2023-08-29 to 2023-12-31.

Anomalies are calculated using the 1990-2020 reference period.

Key Results and Visualizations

Time series plots for seasonal bottom temperature anomaly for each EPU shows a long-term warming trend. PSY forecasted data also included for comparison and indicates varying skill in predicting regional bottom temperature.

Implications

Bottom temperature is an important driver for benthic and demersal species growth, metabolism, and reproduction. Changes in seasonal bottom temperature have implications for species' phenology
