Bottom temperature product for the northeast U.S continental shelf obtained from a combination combination of observations and models, daily, 1/12°, 1959 - 2020

Two ocean products are combined, a regional ocean model (ROMS-NWA) and a global ocean data assimilated models (GLORYS12v1) to build a high-resolution, long-term bottom temperature product for the northeast U.S. continental shelf between 1959 and 2020. ROMS-NWA is bias-corrected using monthly decadal climatologies from ocean observations. Model skill was assessed using a large number of in situ observations. This performance assessment is presented in du Pontavice et al. 2023. du Pontavice, Hubert, Zhuomin Chen, et Vincent S.
