Abstract :
In the MUBEX observation campaign, sea skin temperature was extensively observed by a thermal infrared camera. The total number of images collected during the MUBEX campaign was about 50,000 frames, which provided various aspects of sea skin temperature behavior. The distribution pattern of sea skin temperature changes depending upon sunshine, cloud and wind. This paper describes the results of early stage of TIC image analyses concerned with sea skin temperature observation
