An ice mask, courtesy of the National Center for Environmental Prediction (NCEP), is available as part of the 50 km Global SST images.

For the colored field and contoured field images, pixels with an observation age greater than 303 hours (or 12.6 days) are colored brown. The maximum and minimum sea surface temperature for these images are computed excluding the brown pixels whose SSTs are unreliable due to their age.
