CMEMS-LSCE: a global, 0.25°, monthly reconstruction of the surface ocean carbonate system
Observation-based data reconstructions of global surface ocean carbonate system variables play an essential role in monitoring the recent status of ocean carbon uptake and ocean acidification, as well as their impacts on marine organisms and ecosystems. So far, ongoing efforts are directed towards e...

Observation-based data reconstructions of global surface ocean carbonate system variables play an essential role in monitoring the recent status of ocean carbon uptake and ocean acidification, as well as their impacts on marine organisms and ecosystems. So far, ongoing efforts are directed towards exploring new approaches to describe the complete marine carbonate system and to better recover its fine-scale features. In this respect, our research activities within the Copernicus Marine Environment Monitoring Service (CMEMS) aim to develop a sustainable production chain of observation-derived global ocean carbonate system datasets at high space–time resolutions. As the start of the long-term objective, this study introduces a new global 0.25 ∘ monthly reconstruction, namely CMEMS-LSCE (Laboratoire des Sciences du Climat et de l'Environnement) for the period 1985–2021. The CMEMS-LSCE reconstruction derives datasets of six carbonate system variables, including surface ocean partial pressure of CO 2 ( p CO 2 ), total alkalinity ( A T ), total dissolved inorganic carbon ( C T ), surface ocean pH, and saturation states with respect to aragonite ( Ω ar ) and calcite ( Ω ca ).
