ECCO Iter22 Global Ocean State Estimate - 1 January 2004 to 30 April 2005

<p>Time series of global ocean temperature, salinity, and sound speed derived from the &ldquo;Estimating the Circulation and Climate of the Ocean" (ECCO) program Iter22 state estimates.&nbsp; The sound speed fields were computed for simulation of acoustic propagation over basin scales or longer in a realistic oceanic environment.&nbsp; These estimates&nbsp; were computed in 2010 by the JPL-MIT-SIO ECCO program. &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;<br>Original link: http://ecco2.jpl.nasa.gov/data9/cube/iter22/lat_lon/quart_80S_80N/THETA/ , now defunct.</p> <p>The solution is mesoscale permitting.&nbsp; The solution was obtained on a cube sphere grid between 80S and 80N with 18-km horizontal grid spacing and 50 vertical levels (Menemenlis et al., 2005, NASA supercomputer improves prospects for ocean &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;<br>climate research, Eos Trans., AGU 86, 89, 95&ndash;96.).&nbsp; State estimates were averaged over a 3-day interval. File 003 is averaged over 2004/1/1 -- 2004/1/3.&nbsp; Three-day-mean temperature and salinity profiles from the iter22 solution were provided on 1/4 degree&nbsp;<br>grid for the period 1 January 2004 to 30 April 2005. There are 162 snapshots at 3-day intervals.&nbsp;</p> <p>Depths were decimated to the standard 33 depths of the World Ocean Atlas to 5500 m. &nbsp; YearDay 1 is 1 January 1992.&nbsp; The number of the filename indicates the yearday in 2004.&nbsp; In situ temperature was computed from model potential temperature.&nbsp; Sound speed was computed using the Del Grosso sound speed equation.&nbsp; Original model profiles descended only to the model sea floor.&nbsp; Temperature, salinity and sound speed were filled in on a uniform grid using nearest neighbor to 5500 m depth. &nbsp;Values on a regular grid make life easier.&nbsp; Product documented in Dushaw and Menemenlis, 2014, Antipodal acoustic thermometry: 1960, 2004, Deep Sea Research Part I: Oceanographic Research Papers, 86, 1&ndash;20, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.dsr.824 2013.12.008.</p> <p>Each snapshot is stored as a netcdf 4 file.&nbsp; Latitude, Longitude, Depth, and YearDay variables given separately in sspgrid.nc .&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; <br>N.B.: Values in the files are stored as 32-bit or 16-bit integers to save disk space:</p> <p>Sound Speed:&nbsp; saved as "round( (c-1000)*1000 )", so to get actual c: c=1000. + double(c)/1000.&nbsp;<br>Sound speed is stored to 3 decimal places as a 32-bit integer.</p> <p>Temperature: saved as &nbsp; "round( (T-10)*1000 )", so to get actual T: T=10. + double(T)/1000.&nbsp;<br>Temperature is stored to 3 decimal places as a 16-bit integer.&nbsp; Note that abyssal temperature can sometimes be negative.</p> <p>Salinity: saved as &nbsp; "round( (S-10)*1000 )", so to get actual S: S=10. + double(S)/1000.&nbsp;<br>Salinity is stored to 3 decimal places as a 16-bit integer.</p> <p>Data directory also has two matlab routines: get_section.m and dist.m.&nbsp; get_section.m shows how to load the files, compute the physical variable from the stored value, and compute a section of ssp, T, or S.&nbsp;&nbsp; dist.m is a utility for computing geodesics; it relies on R.

Marine heatwaves statistics for the tropical western and central Pacific Ocean

<p>Processed marine heatwave metrics are provided for the tropical western and central Pacific Ocean region (120&deg;E-140&deg;W, 40&deg;S-15&deg;N). The metrics are computed from daily sea surface temperature (SST) data, from both observations and models. The observed marine heatwave data are calculated from NOAA 0.25&deg; daily Optimum Interpolation Sea Surface Temperature (OISST) over the period 1982-2019. The modelled marine heatwave data are from analysis of 18 model simulations as part of the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project, Phase 6 (CMIP6) over the period 1982-2100, where two future scenarios have been analysed. Marine heatwaves are computed with respect to the 1995-2014 climatology.&nbsp;The marine heatwave data are provided on a grid point basis across the domain. Marine heatwave timeseries metrics are also provided for three case study regions: Fiji, Samoa, and Palau.</p>

Indicative distribution map for Ecosystem Functional Group M2.1 Epipelagic ocean waters

<p>This archive contains indicative distribution maps and profiles for <strong>M2.1 Epipelagic ocean waters</strong>, a ecosystem functional group (EFG, level 3) of the <a href="https://global-ecosystems.org/">IUCN Global Ecosystem Typology</a> (v2.0). Please refer to Keith <em>et al.</em> (2020) for details.</p> <p>The descriptive profiles provide brief summaries of key ecological traits and processes, maps are indicative of global distribution patterns, and are not intended to represent fine-scale patterns. The maps show areas of the world containing major (value of 1, coloured red) or minor occurrences (value of 2, coloured yellow) of each ecosystem functional group. Minor occurrences are areas where an ecosystem functional group is scattered in patches within matrices of other ecosystem functional groups or where they occur in substantial areas, but only within a segment of a larger region. Given bounds of resolution and accuracy of source data, the maps should be used to query which EFG are likely to occur within areas, rather than which occur at particular point locations. Detailed methods and references for the maps are included in the profile (xml format).</p>

Ensemble of ice shelf basal melt rates and ocean properties for tipped-over continental shelves

<p><strong>Summary</strong><strong>:</strong></p> <p>This dataset contains the reference and tipped states from several&nbsp;model configurations developed at the <a href="https://www.awi.de/en/">Alfred Wegener Institute (AWI)</a> and the <a href="https://www.ige-grenoble.fr/?lang=en">Institut des G&eacute;osciences de l&rsquo;Environnement (IGE)</a>. They were gathered here in the context of the <a href="https://www.tipaccs.eu">TiPACCs European project</a> and constitute a useful ensemble of reference and tipped ocean&ndash;ice-shelf simulations that <strong>can be used to feed ice-sheet simulations or to train melt parameterizations</strong>.</p> <p>The&nbsp;simulations produced by AWI are based on the <a href="https://fesom.de">FESOM</a> global ocean&ndash;sea-ice model using either Z- or Sigma- coordinates and all show a cold-to-warm tipping point for Filchner-Ronne Ice Shelf. The two sets of simulations produced by IGE are based on the <a href="https://www.nemo-ocean.eu">NEMO</a> ocean&ndash;sea-ice model. They include a global configuration showing a cold-to-warm tipping point for Ross Ice Shelf, and regional Amundsen Sea configuration showing a warm-to-warmer transition (likely not a proper tipping point).&nbsp;</p> <p>The files include 3-dimensional and sea-floor ocean temperatures and salinities, ice-shelf melt rates, as well as topographic and grid data. All variables are interpolated onto the common 8km stereographic grid that was used to provide ocean forcing in ISMIP6 (<a href="https://doi.org/10.5194/tc-14-2331-2020">Nowicki et al. 2020</a>).</p> <p>We provide the reference state and the anomaly, so that the tipped state is:</p> <ul> <li><em>Tipped = Reference + Anomaly</em></li> </ul> <p>To have an overview of the reference and tipped states, have a look at these figures:</p> <ul> <li><em>figure_ref_and_anomalies_1.pdf</em></li> <li> <p><em>figure_ref_and_anomalies_2.pdf</em></p> </li> <li> <p><em>figure_seafloor_temp_zooms.pdf</em></p> </li> </ul> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>_______________________________________________</p> <p><strong>Detailed Data Description</strong><strong>:</strong></p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <ul> <li><strong>reference_high_FESOM_sigma_AWI_TiPACCs.nc</strong> <ul> <li>contact: Ralph Timmermann&nbsp;<a href="mailto:ralph.timmermann@awi.de">ralph.timmermann@awi.de</a>, Verena Haid&nbsp;<a href="mailto:verena.haid@awi.de">verena.haid@awi.de</a></li> <li>model: FESOM1.4, sigma-coordinates (global with refined grid around Antarctica)</li> <li>atmospheric forcing: HadCM3 20C</li> <li>provided average: 1990-1999 (10-year mean)</li> <li>more:&nbsp;<a href="https://doi.org/10.1007/s10236-013-0642-0">Timmermann and Hellmer (2013)</a></li> </ul> </li> </ul> <p>&nbsp;</p> <ul> <li><strong>reference_low_FESOM_sigma_AWI_TiPACCs.nc</strong> <ul> <li>contact: Ralph Timmermann&nbsp;<a href="mailto:ralph.timmermann@awi.de">ralph.timmermann@awi.de</a>, Verena Haid&nbsp;<a href="mailto:verena.haid@awi.de">verena.haid@awi.de</a></li> <li>model: FESOM1.4, sigma-coordinates (global with refined grid around Antarctica)</li> <li>atmospheric forcing: HadCM3 20C</li> <li>provided average: 1990-1999 (10-year mean)</li> <li>more:&nbsp;<a href="https://doi.org/10.5194/os-13-765-2017">Timmermann and Goeller (2017)</a></li> </ul> </li> </ul> <p>&nbsp;</p> <ul> <li><strong>reference_FESOM_z_AWI_TiPACCs.nc</strong> <ul> <li>contact: Verena Haid&nbsp;<a href="mailto:verena.haid@awi.de">verena.haid@awi.de</a></li> <li>model: FESOM1.4, Z-coordinates (global with refined grid around Antarctica)</li> <li>atmospheric forcing: ERA Interim</li> <li>provided average: 2008-2017 (10-year mean), i.e. model year 30-39</li> <li>more: same mesh as <a href="https://doi.org/10.5194/tc-13-2317-2019">G&uuml;rses et al.

Stable isotope ratios of C, N and S in Southern Ocean sea stars (1985-2017)

<p>Sea stars (Echinodermata: Asteroidea) are a key component of Southern Ocean benthos, with 16% of the known sea star species living there. In temperate marine environments, sea stars commonly play an important role in food webs, acting as keystone species. However, trophic ecology and functional role of Southern Ocean sea stars are still poorly known, notably due to the scarcity of large-scale studies. Here, we report 24332 trophic marker (stable isotopes and elemental contents of C, N and S of tegument and/or tube feet) and biometric (arm length, disk radius, arm to disk ratio) measurements in 2456 specimens of sea stars. Samples were collected between 12/01/1985 and 08/10/2017 in numerous locations along the Antarctic littoral and Subantarctic islands. The spatial scope of the dataset covers a significant portion of the Southern Ocean (Latitude: 47.717&deg; South to 86.273&deg; South ; longitude: 127.767&deg; West to 162.201&deg; East ; depth: 6 to 5338 m). The dataset contains 133 distinct taxa, including 72 currently accepted species spanning 51 genera, 20 families and multiple feeding guilds / functional groups (suspension feeders, sediment feeders, omnivores, predators of mobile or sessile prey). For 505 specimens, mitochondrial CO1 genes were sequenced to confirm and/or refine taxonomic identifications, and those sequences are already publicly available through the Barcode of Life Data System. This number will grow in the future, as molecular analyses are still in progress. Overall, thanks to its large taxonomic, spatial, and temporal extent, as well as its integrative nature (combining genetic, morphological and ecological data), this dataset can be of wide interest to Southern Ocean ecologists, invertebrate zoologists, benthic ecologists, and environmental managers dealing with associated areas.</p>

<p><strong>Surface ocean fugacity of CO2 (fCO2) and air-sea CO2 flux data from individual Global Ocean Biogeochemistry Models (GOBMs) and surface ocean fCO2-based data-products (data-products).</strong><br> There are three types of files: (1) one file per fCO2-product with gridded fields and regionally-integrated CO2 flux time-series, (2) one file per GOBM with gridded fields, and (3) one file with the regionally-integrated time-series for the GOBMs. &nbsp;</p> <p><strong>Note: </strong>These provided gridded outputs from fCO2-based data-products and GOBMs are regridded datasets, without adjustments. <strong>The best estimates of the annual global ocean carbon sink, based on the native grids of data-products and GOBMs and with the adjustments described in the Global Carbon Budget 2022 (https://doi.org/10.5194/essd-14-4811-2022, section C3), are available in the Global Carbon Budget 2022 spreadsheet.</strong></p> <p>The regionally-integrated time-series are as provided by the contributing groups, i.e. integrated from their native grids. In order to reproduce Figure 13 of the Global Carbon Budget 2022 paper (https://doi.org/10.5194/essd-14-4811-2022), the river flux adjustment needs to be added to the CO2 flux estimated from the data-products (North: 0.17 GtC yr-1, Tropics: 0.16 GtC yr-1, South: 0.32 GtC yr-1, see GCB 2022 paper, section 2.4.1). The sum of the regional fluxes may differ from the global estimates as reported in the GCB spreadsheet, because adjustments were applied only for global fluxes.</p> <p><strong>What is in the files?</strong></p> <p>(1) The files for the fCO2-based data-products contain the following variables (temporal resolution: monthly):</p> <p><br> fgco2_reg: Regionally integrated air-sea CO2 flux (positive downward), monthly, for regions: north, tropics, south<br> fgco2: Flux density of the total air-sea CO2 flux (positive downward), dimensions: time, latitude, longitude<br> sfco2: Surface ocean fCO2, dimensions: time, latitude, longitude<br> area: Area per pixel, dimensions: latitude, longitude<br> area_reg: Total surface ocean area covered by native grid, for global, north, tropics, south</p> <p>(2) The files for the GOBMs contain the following fields, for simulation A (&lsquo;contemporary simulation&rsquo;, including effects of rising CO2, climate change and variability) and simulation B (&lsquo;control simulation&rsquo;, constant CO2, no climate change and variability).

BGQNAPv1.0: A summer macronutrients binned data set for the Northern Antarctic Peninsula, Southern Ocean

<p>We compiled a time series spanning the period from 1996 to 2019 of the seawater hydrographic variables conservative temperature (<sup>o</sup>C), absolute salinity (g kg<sup>&shy;&ndash;1</sup>) and dissolved oxygen (&mu;mol kg<sup>&shy;&ndash;1</sup>), and the macronutrients DIN (nitrate +&nbsp;nitrite +&nbsp;ammonium), phosphate, and silicic acid (&mu;mol kg<sup>&shy;&ndash;1</sup>). The study area covered the northern Antarctic Peninsula regions including the Gerlache Strait&nbsp;and the western, central, and eastern basins of Bransfield Strait. Most data (~90%) were obtained from the Brazilian High Latitude Oceanography Group (GOAL; http://goal.furg.br/) from austral summer field campaigns (January-March). In some years (1996, 2005, 2006, 2010, 2011) we used hydrographic and macronutrient data from GLODAP 2020 (Olsen et al., 2020) along the NAP and exceptionally for 1996 we used data available from December 1995 to February 1996 (the FRUELA cruises, Garc&iacute;a et al., 2022; &Aacute;lvarez et al., 2002).&nbsp;Details on the sampling and analysis of macronutrient data obtained from GLODAP dataset can be accessed on the OCADS platform (<a href="https://www.ncei.noaa.gov/access/ocean-carbon-acidification-data-system-portal/">https://www.ncei.noaa.gov/access/ocean-carbon-acidification-data-system-portal/</a>).</p> <p>About 97% of the DIN data were composed of nitrate, followed by ammonium (2%) and nitrite (1%). Therefore, in some cases (11% of all data), we considered DIN as the nitrate concentration, when no nitrite and/or ammonium data were available. Discrete seawater samples were collected at irregular depth intervals from surface (5 m) to deep waters (at approximately 15 m from the bottom). We averaged the parameters for each region at regular depth intervals from the surface to the bottom (i.e., 0, 25, 50, 75, 100, 250, 500, 750, 1000, 1250, 1500, 1750, 2000, 2500 m) to obtain an averaged summer profile for each year.</p> <p>All sampling and analyses information&nbsp;of the hydrographic and macronutrients&nbsp;are detailed in Kerr et al.&nbsp;(2018), Mata et al.&nbsp;(2018), Dotto et al.&nbsp;(2021)&nbsp;and Costa et al. (2020), and references therein.</p>

SO-WISE South Atlantic Ocean and Indian Ocean Observational Constraints

<p>This dataset contains an initial set of curated and processed oceanographic observations collected as part of a joint effort between the EU SO-CHIC project and a UKRI Future Leaders Fellowship. It is partly intended to be used as a set of observational constraints for a Weddell Gyre region state estimate, although it can be used for more general analysis purposes as well. It has been used as part of an unsupervised clustering analysis [see Jones (2022) for software and Jones and Zhou (2022) for labelled dataset, see references].&nbsp;</p> <p><strong>Overall spatial and temporal coverage</strong></p> <ul> <li>Latitude: 85&deg;S-30&deg;S</li> <li>Longitude: 65&deg;W-80&deg;E</li> <li>Time: 1974-2020</li> </ul> <p><strong>Contents</strong></p> <ul> <li>CPOM_SSH: sea-ice corrected sea surface height&nbsp;</li> <li>CTD: temperature and salinity profiles from ship-based CTD casts&nbsp;</li> <li>FLOATS: temperature and salinity profiles from Argo floats&nbsp;</li> <li>SEALS: temperature and salinity profiles from seal-mounted profilers</li> <li>Stress_and_EKE: sea-ice corrected surface stress and EKE&nbsp;</li> <li>XBT: temperature and salinity&nbsp;profiles from expendable bathythermographs (XBTs)</li> </ul> <p><strong>Profile quality control</strong></p> <p>We only consider profiles with good position and time flags, as well as good temperature, salinity, and pressure measurements with good flags. Duplicated profiles are identified when multiple profiles are found within 24 hours over the same 2 km x 2 km grid cell, and only one profile within the spatio-temporal window is used. We then used the MITprof toolbox (Forget, G.,&nbsp;2017)&nbsp;to pre-process the selected profiles, re-gridding them onto 72 standard pressure levels; the vertical interval varies from 20 dbar at the surface to 100 dbar in the deep ocean.&nbsp;</p> <p><strong>SSH processing</strong></p> <p>SSH data is sea-ice corrected version provided by the Centre for Polar Observation and Modelling (CPOM) in the UK. It is composed by two satellite missions, Envisat (2004/05-2012/03) and Cryosat-2 (2010/07-2020/04). The data is available in montly along-track format. A gaussian 300km filter, &plusmn;3 std outliner removal and 0.5x0.25 deg interpolation is applied to grid the data. Intersatellite offset is removed using the overlapped period between two missions using the mean difference map. SSH is referenced to EIGEN6C4 geoid to obtain the dynamic ocean topography feild for the computation of geostrophic velocity.

Dataset generated to evaluate in situ sampling strategies to reconstruct fine-scale ocean currents in the context of SWOT satellite mission (H2020 EuroSea project)

<p><strong>Dataset&nbsp;generated in Subtask 2.3.1 of the H2020 EuroSea project.</strong></p> <ul> <li> <p><em>H2020 EuroSea project:</em><br> The H2020 EuroSea project aims at improving and integrating the European Ocean Observing and Forecasting System (see official website:&nbsp;<a href="https://eurosea.eu/">https://eurosea.eu/</a>). It has received funding from the European Union&rsquo;s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under grant agreement No 862626).</p> </li> <li> <p><em>Task 2.3:</em><br> Task 2.3 has the objective to improve the design of multi-platform experiments aimed to validate the Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) satellite observations with the goal to optimize the utility of these observing platforms. Observing System Simulation Experiments (OSSEs) have been conducted to evaluate different configurations of the in situ observing system, including rosette and underway CTD, gliders, conventional satellite nadir altimetry and velocities from drifters. High-resolution models have been used to simulate the observations and to represent the &ldquo;ocean truth&rdquo;. Several methods of reconstruction have been tested: spatio-temporal optimal interpolation, machine-learning techniques, model data assimilation and the MIOST tool.&nbsp;The planned OSSEs are detailed in this public report&nbsp;<a href="https://doi.org/10.3289/eurosea_d2.1">Barcel&oacute;-Llull et al.&nbsp;(2020)</a>&nbsp;and the complete analysis is available here <a href="https://doi.org/10.3289/eurosea_d2.3">Barcel&oacute;-Llull et al.&nbsp;(2022)</a>.
