Red Sea surface temperature
Description
Daily sea-surface temperature observations from the years 1985 to 2015 (inclusive), for 16703 regularly-spaced locations across the Red Sea; see Donlon et al. (2012) for details.
These data have been analysed by Hazra and Huser (2021), Simpson and Wadsworth (2021), Simpson et al. (2023), and Sainsbury-Dale et al. (2023), among others.

Notes
Denote the number of days for which data was recorded by *r* = 16703. A number of objects are stored in this data set:
- `data` is an *r* x *n* matrix with rows corresponding to days and columns corresponding to spatial location.
- `loc` is a 2 x *n* matrix of spatial locations.
- `time`, `day`, `month`, and `year` are *r*-vectors whose *i*th elements respectively give the time, day, month, and year that `data[i, ]` was observed.
