NOAA Coral Reef Watch Monthly 25 km Ocean Acidification Product Suite from 1992-01-01 to 1992-12-31 covering the Greater Caribbean Region (NODC Accession 0075240)

The NOAA Coral Reef Watch Experimental Ocean Acidification Product Suite (OAPS) offers an important synthesis of satellite and modeled environmental datasets to provide a synoptic estimate of sea surface carbonate chemistry in the Greater Caribbean Region. This tool complements ongoing geochemical surveys and monitoring efforts in the region by providing estimates of changing ocean chemistry on a broader spatial and temporal scale than shipboard observations alone can permit. The maps presented here are monthly averages of daily estimates derived according to Gledhill et al., 2008. Near-real-time estimates are modeled from daily fields of NOAA Optimum Interpolation Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer - Advanced Microwave Scanning Radiometer (AVHRR-AMSRE) SST, Hybrid Coordinate Ocean Model + Navey Coupled Ocean Data Assimilation (HYCOM + NCODA) modeled sea surface salinity (SSS), NOAA National Centers for Environmental Predication (NCEP) sea-level pressure (SLP), and estimates of atmospheric CO2 derived from the NOAA Earth System Research Laboratory GLOBALVIEW-CO2 reference marine boundary layer (MBL). The parameters provided in this data set include sea surface temperature (SST), sea surface salinity (SSS), partial pressure of carbon dioxide for seawater (pCO2sw), total alkilinity (TA), total inorganic carbon (TC), pH, aragonite saturation state (SSA), bicarbonate ion concentration (HCO3), and carbonate ion concentration (CO3). All parameters are provided at monthly, 25km resolution.

美国国家海洋和大气管理局（National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, NOAA）珊瑚礁观测站实验性海洋酸化产品套件（Ocean Acidification Product Suite, OAPS）整合了卫星遥感与模式模拟的环境数据集，旨在为大加勒比地区提供海表碳酸盐化学特征的全域估算结果。该工具可为该区域正在开展的地球化学调查与监测工作提供补充，其提供的海洋化学变化估算可覆盖比单一船基观测无法企及的更广泛时空尺度。此处展示的地图为依据Gledhill等人2008年研究方法得到的日估算值的月度平均值。近实时估算基于以下数据源：美国国家海洋和大气管理局最优插值先进甚高分辨率辐射计-先进微波扫描辐射计（Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer - Advanced Microwave Scanning Radiometer, AVHRR-AMSRE）海表温度（Sea Surface Temperature, SST）日场、混合坐标海洋模型+海军耦合海洋数据同化系统（Hybrid Coordinate Ocean Model + Navy Coupled Ocean Data Assimilation, HYCOM + NCODA）模拟海表盐度（Sea Surface Salinity, SSS）、美国国家海洋和大气管理局国家环境预报中心（National Centers for Environmental Prediction, NCEP）海平面气压（Sea Level Pressure, SLP），以及源自美国国家海洋和大气管理局地球系统研究实验室GLOBALVIEW-CO2参考海洋边界层（Marine Boundary Layer, MBL）得到的大气CO₂估算值。本数据集包含以下参数：海表温度（SST）、海表盐度（SSS）、海水二氧化碳分压（pCO2sw）、总碱度（Total Alkalinity, TA）、总无机碳（Total Inorganic Carbon, TC）、pH值、文石饱和度（Aragonite Saturation State, SSA）、碳酸氢根离子浓度（HCO3）以及碳酸根离子浓度（CO3）。所有参数均以月度时间分辨率与25千米空间分辨率提供。
