An ocean heatwave is defined as a phenomenon where sea temperatures exceed the local annual average for five consecutive days. This product can forecast the occurrence and disappearance process, impact range, and intensity changes of ocean heatwaves in global waters for the next week, thus enhancing China's ability to predict and respond to ocean heatwave disasters.
