Modeled temperature and associated metrics of the Marine heatwaves in the Humboldt Current System

This dataset includes the model results and associated research data that support the summary results of the article "Full-dimensional structure of marine heatwaves in the Northern Humboldt Current System during recent decades: A modelling study". Specifically, it consists of four files (in Matlab format) namely:<br> i) Surface_MHWs.mat, this file contains the daily snapshots of MHWs intensity and category at the surface, from 2000 to 2019, within 70-93°W in longitude and from 21°S to 3°N in latitude;<br> ii) Northern_MHWs.mat, this file contains the daily modeled temperature (from 2000 to 2019) within the northern domain of analysis (3-8°S) within the 250 km nearshore band for each vertical layer ranging from 0 to 250m depth. In addition, the average MHWs metrics are also included by depth, which are: density, intensity, duration, and frequency.<br> iii) Central_MHWs.mat, similar to the latter, but for the central domain of analysis, from 8 to 13°S.<br> iv) Southern_MHWs.mat, performed for the southern domain of analysis (13-18°S).
