Sea surface temperature (2023)
Animated global map of the monthly average temperature of the top millimetre of the ocean's surface throughout the year 2023.
The ocean is brought to life in this collection of accurate, accessible science graphics, designed to make understanding Earth’s oceans clear and engaging. These visuals cover ocean basins, currents, seafloor structures, and interactions with the atmosphere and tectonic plates, helping to explain how oceans shape climate, ecosystems, and geology. Ideal for educators, students, and geoscience enthusiasts, this ocean graphic collection turns complex marine science concepts into visually rich, easy-to-grasp resources for teaching and learning about Earth’s dynamic oceans.
