Supporting derived data for Shields et al. (2020, GRL) Derived tropical cyclone potential intensities and associated variables across the North Atlantic (NA), Eastern NorthPacific (EP), North Indian (NI), South Indian (SI), South Pacific (SP), and Western North Pacific (WP)ocean basins, from MERRA2, ERA-I, and MERRA2 with SSTs replaced by HadISSTs. All files are netcdf format, organized by basin, withsuffixes"m", "h", and "e" on data variables forMERRA2, MERRA2-HadISSTs, and ERA-I, respectively.
