Description
Summary:Fluxes calculated using the standardized approach: \(F\text{CO}_2=K_0 \cdot K_w \cdot (p\text{CO}_2^\text{sea} - p\text{CO}_2^\text{atm})\ \cdot (1 - [ice])\). We provide each of the components to this equation to reduce the potential for errors in fluxes due to methodological differences. The netCDF files contain the following data: fgco2_all_winds_products: the sea-air CO2 flux for all spCO2 products (6) and kw from all wind products (5). fgco2_global: the globally integrated sea-air CO2 fluxes for all spCO2 products (6) and kw from all wind products (6) solWeis74 : \(K_0\) is calculated using the Weiss (1974) parameterization with EN4 salinity and OISST temperatures kw_quadratic_scaled: \(k_w\) is calculated for winds with each being scaled independently to a 14-C bomb flux estimate of 16.5 cm/hr using the quadratic formulation by Wanninkhof (1992). CCMPv2 ERA5 JRA55 NCEP1 NCEP2 spco2_SOCOM_unfilled : \(p\text{CO}_2^\text{sea}\) downloaded from various sources contains the following products: CMEMS_FFNN ... : version 2021.04.03: includes globally integrated fluxes including all wind and pco2 products. version 2021.04.02: removed some files that remained from v2021.02 that I didn't delete in v2021.04 version 2021.04 now extends the variables to calculate fluxes from 1982-2020. The comparison period for fluxes is now limited to 1990-2019 (30 years). The area contains coastal fraction coverage. A missing strip along the longitude 179.5°E is filled in. Negative values of pCO2 are limited to 50 µatm (primarily affects JENA in Hudson Bay). version 2021.02 calibrates kw with 14-C bomb estimated global average kw (16.5 ± 3.2 cm/hr) where the average is calculated without ice weighting (v2021.01 included ice weighting). Further, the date range of the data has been increased from 1982 to 2020 where possible (not possible for the scaling factor and pCO2 product). ...
