root mean sq anom [ KAPLAN EXTENDED v2 ssta ]: SST anomaly\0~ data

ssta ssta SST anomaly\0~ from KAPLAN EXTENDED v2: Statistically homogenous concatenation of Kaplan et al [1998] OS SST and Reynolds and Smith [1994] NCEP OI analyses; the latter gets degraded to the resolution of the former\0 àÝX ­.
