This dataset comprises 3D gridded climatological fields of geostrophic velocity inverted from World Ocean Atlas-2013 (WOA2013) temperature and salinity fields using the P-vector method. It provides a climatological velocity field that is dynamically compatible to the WOA2013 (T, S) fields. The dataset has the same spatial resolution and temporal variation (annual, monthly, seasonal) as WOA2103 (T, S) fields, but does not cover the equatorial zone (5oS – 5oN) due to the geostrophic balance being the theoretical basis for the P-vector inverse method.

The dataset (called EWG-V) comprises 3D gridded climatological fields of absolute geostrophic velocity inverted from the Environmental Working Group (EWG) Joint U.S.-Russian Atlas of the Arctic Ocean using the P-vector method. It provides a climatological velocity field that is dynamically compatible to the EWG (T, S) fields. The EWG-V velocity fields have the annual, and seasonal (winter and summer) means with the same horizontal resolution of 25 km and 90 vertical levels as the EWG temperature and salinity fields.

This dataset provides instantaneous hourly global mean atmospheric pressure from the ECCO Version 4 Release 4b (V4r4b) ocean and sea-ice state estimate. V4r4b is an errata for ECCO Version 4, Release 4 (V4r4). Estimating the Circulation and Climate of the Ocean (ECCO) ocean and sea-ice state estimates are dynamically and kinematically-consistent reconstructions of the three-dimensional time-evolving ocean, sea-ice, and surface atmospheric states.

A Group for High Resolution Sea Surface Temperature (GHRSST) Level 4 sea surface temperature (SST) analysis produced daily on an operational basis at the Canadian Meteorological Center. This dataset merges infrared satellite SST at varying points in the time series from the (A)TSR series of radiometers from ERS-1, ERS-2 and Envisat, AVHRR from NOAA-16,17,18,19 and METOP-A, and microwave data from TMI, AMSR-E and Windsat in conjunction with in situ observations of SST from drifting buoys and ships from the ICOADS program. It uses the previous days analysis as the background field for the statistical interpolation used to assimilate the satellite and in situ observations. This dataset adheres to the GHRSST Data Processing Specification (GDS) version 2 format specifications.
