Automated importation of sea surface temperature data
Matlab functions to import the high-resolution sea surface temperature data from the JPL OurOcean group
Summary
The function getSST reads and store the sea surface temperature (SST) produced daily by the JPL OurOcean group [1]. The dataset is described in more details in Chao et al. [2]. The SST data are available on a grid of 0.009 degree, which represents a horizontal resolution of approximatively 1 km. In the documentation, the second example uses the function borders.m and/or bordersm.m [3,4]. This is the first version of the submission, some bugs may still be present. Credits should go to [1,2] for the dataset.

Example 1 (case of the North Sea)
The fitting of the extended SEIR model to real data provides the following results:
