The dataset contains 7 observational subsets collected in the South Atlantic Basin (45S~0N), including 4 cruise/float individual profiles datasets and 2 gridded datasets. Specifically: (1) cruise/float individual profiles datasets• SAMBA-MSM60 cruises (Filename: SAMBA-MSM60.zip)• SAMBA-west (SAM02-SAM18) cruises (Filename: SAMBA-West.zip)• GO-SHIP A09, A10 cruises (Filename: GO-SHIP.zip)• South Atlantic Individual Argo profiles (Filename: Argo_T_S_float.zip) • GoodHope cruises (Filename: GoodHope.zip) • SAMBA-East cruises (Filename: SAMBA-East.zip) (2) Gridded products• South Atlantic IAP monthly gridded products (0-6000m) (Filename: IAP_gridded_product.zip)• South Atlantic SIO Argo gridded products (0-2000m) (Filename: SIO-Argo.zip) The README file could be found in each subset.
