ERA-5 reanalysis results interpolated onto the five-minute average cruise track of the Antarctic Circumnavigation Expedition (ACE) during the austral summer of 2016/2017.

<p><strong>Dataset abstract</strong></p> <p>ERA-5 fields at 1-hour temporal and grid size of 0.25&deg; x 0.25&deg; (0.5&deg; x 0.5&deg; for wave variables) have been downloaded from <a href="https://cds.climate.copernicus.eu/api/v2/resources/reanalysis-era5-single-levels">https://cds.climate.copernicus.eu/api/v2/resources/reanalysis-era5-single-levels</a>.</p> <p>The data are interpolated using two methods:</p> <p>&#39;nearest&#39;: the value of the nearest ERA-5 grid cell is use;</p> <p>&#39;linear&#39;: the values from the nearest grid cells in space and time are linearly interpolated to the [date_time, latitude, longitude] coordinate of the ship</p> <p>providing a number of atmospheric, land and oceanic climate variables interpolated along the five-minute cruise track.</p> <p>The data repository can be checked out at: <a href="https://renkulab.io/gitlab/ACE-ASAID/ecmwf-interpolation-to-cruise-track">https://renkulab.io/gitlab/ACE-ASAID/ecmwf-interpolation-to-cruise-track</a></p> <p><strong>Dataset contents</strong></p> <ul> <li>era5-on-cruise-track-5min-legs0-4-linear.csv, data file, comma-separated values</li> <li>era5-on-cruise-track-5min-legs0-4-nearest.csv, data file, comma-separated values</li> <li>interpolate-to-shiptrack.py, processing script, text/x-python</li> <li>download-ecmwf.ipynb, processing script, application/x-ipynb+json</li> <li>ecwmf_interpolate.zip, processing scripts, zip file</li> <li>data_file_header, metadata, text format</li> <li>README.txt, metadata, text format</li> </ul> <p><strong>Dataset license</strong></p> <p>This interpolation of the ERA-5 reanalysis output to the five-minute averaged cruise track and velocity dataset is made available under the Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License (CC BY 4.0) whose full text can be found at <a href="https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/">https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/</a></p>
