2015 Global Ocean 20°C Depth Anomaly Map - GODAS Data #1421648 (License: Personal Use)

The image displays the GODAS (Global Ocean Data Assimilation System) 20°C isotherm depth anomaly for June 27, 2015, with color-coded deviations in meters from climatological mean. Strong positive anomalies (up to +50 m) in the central/eastern equatorial Pacific reflect El Niño conditions, while negative anomalies (down to -50 m) appear in the western Pacific and parts of the Southern Ocean. Latitude and longitude gridlines aid geographic orientation, and the color bar quantifies anomaly magnitude.

Used in climate science communication, oceanography education, and El Niño monitoring reports; ideal for pages discussing 2015’s strong El Niño event, ocean heat content, or marine ecosystem impacts.
