MOVE/MRI.COM-JPN Dataset

MOVE/MRI.COM-JPN Dataset is the dataset produced by an ocean data assimilation system developed by Meteorological Research Institute, Japan Meteorological Agency. This dataset represents the ocean states around Japan with a horizontal resolution of 2 km. Variables * Daily mean - 3D: Zonal velocity, Meridional velocity, Temperature, Salinity - 2D: Sea surface height, Sea level pressure, Tide height of 8 tidal components, Sea ice concentration - 1D: Global mean sea level pressure * 30-minutes snapshot (only sea surface) - 2D: Zonal velocity, Meridional Velocity, Temperature Calculation method of sea surface height derived from ocean variations (SSH_ocean) * SSH_ocean = Sea surface height - (Inverted barometer response) - (Tidal height of 8 tidal components) * Inverted barometer response assumes -1[cm/hPa]* SLPa[hPa] * SLPa = Global mean sea level pressure - Sea level pressure Naming rule * nc_{var}.{YYYYMMDD} * {var}: variable name * {YYYYMMDD}: date Unit * Velocity: [cm/s] * Temperature: [degC] * Salinity: [PSU] * Sea surface height, Tide height of 8 tidal components : [cm] * Sea level pressure: [hPa] * Sea ice concentration: [0-1]
