[NARCCAP-discuss] Sea Surface Temperatures (SST) in NARCCAP

[Seth McGinnis]

Hi Darrin,

Yes, it is.

The SSTs are an input from the GCMs, so we don't store them separately as an
output,  but over the oceans, surface/skin temperature (variable ts in Table 3)
should be the same as the input sea-surface temperature.

Cheers,

--Seth
