CAR36 dataset These data correspond to the 1-year (2019) simulation from the regional ocean system CAR36. These daily hindcasts have been used in the study presented in the paper submitted in GMD editor and entitled: "CAR36, a regional high-resolution ocean forecasting system for improving drift and beaching of Sargassum in the Caribbean Archipelago", where the CAR36 system is fully described. The uploaded files are in netcdf format: CAR36_daily_SSH_20190102-20191224.nc = 1-year daily hindcasts of Sea Surface Height CAR36_daily_SST_20190102-20191224.nc = 1-year daily hindcasts of Sea Surface Temperature CAR36_daily_SSU_20190102-20191224.nc = 1-year daily hindcasts of Sea Surface Current Speed (zonal component) CAR36_daily_SSV_20190102-20191224.nc = 1-year daily hindcasts of Sea Surface Current Speed (meridian component) All data are projected on the native model tripolar ORCA grid in 1/36° horizontal resolution. NB: In order to filter (in a 1st order) the semi-diurnal tidal signal (with a period of 12h30), ...
