Description:
C-GLORSv5: an improved multipurpose global ocean eddy-permitting physical reanalysis Andrea Storto and Simona Masina Earth Syst. Sci. Data, 8, 679-696, doi:10.5194/essd-8-679-2016, 2016 A large number of applications related to the study of ocean climate require reliable datasets of the main physical variables of the ocean. Ocean reanalyses are a methodology based on the synthesis of information from ocean observations and models, and near-surface atmospheric observations into a dataset in a way as consistent in time as possible. In this paper, we describe and validate an upgraded version of the CMCC global ocean physical reanalysis (1980–present) at 1 / 4° resolution.
