Im studying the often monochrome grading of steven soderberg because I want to do similar in my work.

what color is this? (the overall color cast, mainly in the sky and water)?

Im not joking I literally cannot tell what color it is

is it like a pale yellow going into green to create a gold effect?

I'm seeing it as right in between green and yellow. Olive/mustard. But definitely a lot of green in this color.
 
are you saying the OP is ugly?

cause thats kind of what I was getting at.

My next question was gonna be what's the motivation (color temperature, etc) for such a wierd look.

Im guessing its supposed to be like a "golden sun" kinda vibe but yeah....theres green in there.

Green. Hrmn....

I'd say, check out these videos:




You should get a couple answer in it, and maybe reading this should help as well to determine what color you should be aiming at.
Usually, colder/blueish is more for depressive tone/feel, as opposite to yellow like in this case:
