Purpose

The Low-Resolution North Pacific Nearshore Buffer shapefile is used in the NPac_ns_SST.py script that is part of a series of scripts that create North Pacific nearshore raster data. Its purpose is to act as a clipping shape to clip the global Sea Surface Temperature (SST) rasters to within 20 km of the North Pacific coastline.
