Microwave Radiation Imagers (MWRIs) onboard the FY-3B, FY-3C, and FY-3D satellites are the primary sensors for sea surface temperature (SST) observation. Benefiting from the resolution of several key calibration issues in brightness temperature products, MWRI SST records spanning more than a decade have been reprocessed. In this study, these reprocessed SST products are evaluated using direct comparison and the extended triple collocation (ETC) method, along with additional error analyses. Compared with iQuam SST, the reprocessed MWRI SST products from the three satellites show total root mean square errors (RMSEs) of 0.80–0.82 °C and total biases of −0.12 °C to 0.00 °C. ETC analyses based on MWRI, ERA5, and Argo SSTs indicate random errors of 0.76–0.78 °C. Furthermore, the reprocessed MWRI SST products demonstrate temporal stability and exhibit minimal crosstalk effects from sea surface wind speed, columnar water vapor, and columnar cloud liquid water in SST retrievals. Compared with previous versions, the reprocessed products show significant improvements, with consistent performance across FY-3B, FY-3C, and FY-3D. However, differences in SST observations due to the varying local times of the ascending nodes among the three satellites should be corrected in practical applications.
