Product details
24-year model simulation without data assimilation [ 01/01/1993 - 27/12/2017 ] of the physics and sea ice parameters of the global ocean. There are daily and monthly averages over the entire water column. The numerical data are divided into different files that contain 3D information on potential temperature, salinity and currents and 2D information on sea surface level, potential bottom temperature, mixed layer thickness, sea ice thickness, sea ice fraction and sea ice velocities. These data are distributed on a 1/4° native grid (~28km at the equator).
