SVD missing

I have a question regarding the function svdstd. I know it can not
handle missing
data. I want to perform SVD analysis and one of my variables is SST, with
missing data over the land. If I was to assign zeros to the land
points at all times
(therefore a constant over time), would that mess up my SVD results? Otherwise
I will need to make an array that skips over those land points. I do
not know enough
about SVD at this time to know if this is acceptable.

Thanks,
Mike
