Global Ocean Climatology - Temperature and Salinity Climatology V1
- Overview
-
The SDC_GLO_CLIM_TS_V1 product contains two different monthly climatologies for temperature and salinity, SDC_GLO_CLIM_TS_V1_1 and SDC_GLO_CLIM_TS_V1_2 from the World Ocean Data (WOD) database. Only the basic quality control flags from the WOD are used. The climatology, V1_1, considers temperature and salinity profiles from Conductivity Depth Temperature (CTD) profilers, Ocean station data (OSD) and Moored buoy data (MRB) along with Profiling Floats (PFL) from 1900 to 2017. The climatology, V1_2, utilizes only PFL data from 2003 to 2017. V1_1 considers depth layers from surface to 6000 m while V1_2 only from 0 to 2000 m. The gridded fields are computed using DIVAnd (Data Interpolating Variational Analysis) version 2.3.1.

Quality and validity
- Statement
-
The data used as input for this product have been extracted from the World Ocean Database 2013 ( https://www.nodc.noaa.gov/OC5/WOD/pr_wod.html). Only basic quality control flags from the world ocean database have been used for this product. WOD has three types of quality flags i.e.
1-Individual observation value flag whose value,
2-Profile value flag that is assigned during the computation of World Ocean Atlas,
3-Originator flag.
In this analysis, 1 and 2 are used with a quality flag value "0" that indicates an accepted value has been used.
