From: On the interchangeability of sea-surface and near-surface air temperature anomalies in climatologies

Monthly mean time series of deseasoned SST (blue) and nMAT (red) anomalies for selected TAO buoys (left panels) with associated frequency histograms and empirical probability distributions (right panels). Histograms and distributions are determined by binning the data into 14 equal-size bins. Data are calculated from daily, hourly and 10-min measurements. Straight lines indicate linear trends calculated over 3-year selected periods. Trends are not shown for those 3-year periods in which 15% or more of the data are missing.
