Dataset Objective

To provide sea level daily gridded data for the Mediterranean sea.

Context

Data covers the period 1993-2020.

What is included

Data consists of: absolute dynamic topography, absolute geostrophic velocity meridian component, absolute geostrophic velocity zonal component, geostrophic velocity anomalies meridian component, geostrophic velocity anomalies zonal component and sea level anomaly.

Collection Methods

Up-to-date altimeter standards are used to estimate the sea level anomalies with a mapping algorithm specifically dedicated to the Mediterranean Sea.
