ECMWF¶
Let’s download daily sea surface temperature data from 1981 to the present derived from satellite observations (for more info click here) and download it by following the instructions here! Let’s start downloading one year, for example, 2020.
import cdsapi
c = cdsapi.Client()
c.retrieve(
'satellite-sea-surface-temperature',
{
'variable': 'all',
'format': 'tgz',
'processinglevel': 'level_4',
'sensor_on_satellite': 'combined_product',
'version': '2_0',
'year': [
'2020',

'month': [
'01', '02', '03',
'04', '05', '06',
