- The overall idea of this sequence is to statistically compare two or more SST data sets. The data sets are assumed to consist of 2D SST fields in time; i.e., each field is a lat, lon field, one for each instant in time, with many time steps. (This workflow compromises the colored elements of the [modified ocean use case|WorkFlowGridComparisons.pdf] shown in the proposal.) Although this workflow is designed to compare SST fields, it should work for many geo-based arrays.
