Plots of a satellite-observed sea surface temperature (SST), b Saildrone-observed SST, c air temperature, d air-sea temperature difference, e specific humidity, f wind vector, g turbulent (latent plus sensible) heat fluxes on the Saildrone track and altimetric sea surface height (SSH, contours) on January 1, 2019, and h satellite-observed SST averaged from December 28, 2018, to January 8, 2019. In a and h, the Saildrone tracks are illustrated by thick white line. The SSH contour interval is 10 cm and, except for a, gray shaded areas indicate SSH values between 90 and 140 cm
