Aquarius Sea Surface Salinity, L3 SMI, Version 5, 1.0°, Global, 2011-2015, Monthly, Lon0360
공공데이터포털
This dataset has monthly composites of Aquarius Sea Surface Salinity data, version 5. Part of NASA's Earth System Science Pathfinder (ESSP) Mission International Partnership between NASA & CONAE, Aquarius provides unprecedented global maps of surface sea water salinity (SSS) to discover how our oceans respond to climate change and the water cycle. Sea surface salinity, along with sea surface temperature, determines the sea surface density. This controls the formation of water masses in the ocean and regulates the 3-dimensional ocean circulation. Aquarius documentation is at ftp://podaac-ftp.jpl.nasa.gov/allData/aquarius/docs
