Description
Summary:This record contains data related to article "Constructing Satellite-based Ocean-surface Stress and Ekman Circulation in the Arctic and Southern Ocean". It offers a high-resolution, daily analysis of ocean-surface stress and Ekman circulation over the Arctic and Southern Ocean, derived from multiplatform satellite observations. All data are projected onto a 25 km EASE2 grid with daily resolution. The dataset (netcdf) contains the following variables: - zonal components of ocean-surface stress (TAUx, N/m2) - meridional components of ocean-surface stress (TAUy, N/m2) - magnitude of ocean-surface stress (TAU, N/m2) - uncertainty estimates for TAUx (N/m2) - uncertainty estimates for TAUy (N/m2) - Ekman pumping rate (We, m/s) - Land mask - Longitude - Latitude L.Yu acknowledges the support of the NASA Vector Wind Science Team program for this research. ...
