Extended Data Table 1 Oceanic temperature & SST database
From: Partial-convolution-implemented generative adversarial network for global oceanic data assimilation

- The description of the SST or oceanic temperature datasets used in this study. OI in DA method denotes an Optimal Interpolation. Shades of gray in each platform-type of in situ and satellite-based data denotes that platform is used.
