The Dataset's Variables and Attributes

Row Type Variable Name Attribute Name Data Type Value
attribute NC_GLOBAL Acknowledgement String A complete description of the algorithms and quality assessment of the SMOS SSS product are described in Olmedo, E., et al.: Nine years of SMOS sea surface salinity global maps at the Barcelona Expert Center, Earth Syst. Sci. Data, 13, 857–888. This product has been developed by the Instituto de Ciencias del Mar / Barcelona Expert Center (CSIC) as part of the European Marine Observation and Data Network Physics (EMODnet Physics) - EASME/EMFF/2020/3.1.11/Lot4/SI2.838612. The development was also supported by the Ministry of Economy and Competitiviness, Spain, through the National R+D Plan under under Interact Project PID2020-114623RB-C31 and previous grants and by the European Space Agency.

attribute NC_GLOBAL summary String This product integrates Sea Surface Salinity measurements provided by the Soil Moisture and Ocean Salinity (SMOS) European satellite mission.
This product provides daily integrated satellite Sea Surface Salinity (SSS) measurements at global scale. The SMOS SSS maps are merged with daily Sea Surface Temperature maps in order to increase the spatial resolution of the original Level 3 SSS maps. The product has a spatial resolution of 0.05ºx0.05º and the temporal coverage is from 2011 til May 2021.
