The In Situ delayed mode product designed for reanalysis purposes integrates the best available version of in situ data for ocean surface currents. The data are collected from the Surface Drifter Data Assembly Centre (SD-DAC at NOAA AOML). All surface drifters data have been processed to check for drogue loss. Drogued and undrogued drifting buoy surface ocean currents are provided with a drogue presence flag as well as a wind slippage correction for undrogued buoys. Altimeter and wind data have been used to extract the direct wind slippage from the total drifting buoy velocities. This product is designed to be assimilated into or for validation purposes of operational models operated by ocean forecasting centers for reanalysis purposes or for research community. These users need data aggregated and quality controlled in a reliable and documented manner.

This dataset contains (1) outputs of Species Distribution Models (SDMs) for marine fish and (2) estimation of species richness using those outputs. SDMs use correlative algorithms to link presences of species to the environment recorded in place and time of their observation, calculate their environmental niche, estimate the geographical location suitable for them (habitat suitability) and in fine their geographical distribution. Here, we downloaded presences of marine fish from two open source databases, GBIF and OBIS and 13 environmental predictors known to be relevant in fish ecology (list below). We used the CEPHALOPOD pipeline, a framework allowing the user the compute a lot of species at the same time, with comparable methods and a verification of quality of inputs and outputs at every steps (Schickele et al., 2025). 3,642 fish made it to the final step and have the habitat suitability estimated for 12 month + annual mean, 10 bootstrap to quantify uncertainty and x algorithms. Those estimation are available in the “L2_marine_fish_*.nc” files, organized by water column position (bathydemersal, bathypelagic, benthopelagic, demersal, pelagic-neritic, pelagic-oceanic, reef-associated). We then used their annual mean to estimate their actual geographic distribution by applying (1) a bathymetric filtration and (2) a cutting procedure which removes isolated patches of high suitability (i.e., potential distribution) with no recorded presences (i.e., considered to be outside of the species dispersion range). Those geographic distribution were then stacked to estimate global species richness of every fish and each water column position.

The continuously updated version of Copernicus Argo floats realtime currents product is distributed from Copernicus Marine catalogue: - https://resources.marine.copernicus.eu/?option=com_csw&view=details&product_id=INSITU_GLO_UV_NRT_OBSERVATIONS_013_048 The Argo current product generated by Copernicus in situ TAC is derived from the original trajectory data from Argo GDAC (Global Data Assembly Center) available at: - Argo float data and metadata from Global Data Assembly Centre (Argo GDAC). SEANOE. https://doi.org/10.17882/42182 In 2021, the GDAC distributes data from more than 15,000 Argo floats. Deep ocean current is calculated from floats drift at parking depth, surface current is calculated from float surface drift. An Argo float drifts freely in the global ocean, performing regular observation cycles. An observation cycle usually spreads over 10 days :  - a surface descent to a parking depth (generally 1500 meters deep) - a 10-day drift at this parking depth - an ascent to the surface (vertical profile) - A short surface drift for data transmission The data transmitted at each cycle contain temperature, salinity observations (and additional biogeochemical parameters if applicable), positions (gps or argos), technical data. The ocean current product contains a NetCDF file for each Argo float. It is updated daily in real time by automated processes. For each cycle it contains the surface and deep current variables: - Date (time, time_qc) - Position  (latitude, longitude, position_qc) - Pressure (pres, pres_qc, representative_park_pressure for parking drift, 0 decibar for surface drift) - Current (ewct, ewct_qc, nsct, nsct_qc; the current vector is positioned and dated at the last position of the N-1 cycle) - Duration (days) of the current variable sampling (time_interval) - Grounded indicator - Positions and dates have a QC 1 (good data). Positions and dates that do not have a QC 1 are ignored. The positions are measured during the surface drift (Argos or GPS positioning). For the deep current of cycle N, we take the last good position of cycle N-1 and the first good position of cycle N. For the surface current of cycle N, we take the first and last good position of the N cycle.  

15 years of L-Band remote sensing Sea Surface Salinity (SSS) measurements have proven the capability of satellite SSS to resolve large scale to mesoscale SSS features in tropical to subtropical ocean. In mid to high latitude, L-Band measurements still suffer from large scale and time varying biases. Here, a simple method is proposed to mitigate the large scale and time varying biases. First, in order to estimate these biases, an Optimal Interpolation (OI) using a large correlation scale is used to map SMOS and SMAP L3 products and is compared to equivalent mapping of in situ observations. Then, a second mapping is performed on corrected SSS at scale of SMOS/SMAP resolution (~45 km). This procedure allows to correct and merge both products, and to increase signal to noise ratio of the absolute SSS estimates. Using thermodynamic equation of state (TEOS-10), the resulting L4 SSS product is combined with microwave satellite SST products to produce sea surface density and spiciness, useful to fully characterize the surface ocean water masses. The new L4 SSS products is validated against independent in situ measurements from low to high latitudes. The L4 products exhibits a significant improvement in mid-and high latitude in comparison to the existing SMOS and SMAP L3 products.

Ensemble simulations of the ecosystem model Apecosm (https://apecosm.org) forced by the IPSL-CM6-LR climate model with the climate change scenario SSP5-8.5. The output files contain yearly mean biomass density for 3 communities (epipelagic, mesopelagic migratory and mesopelagic redidents) and 100 size classes (ranging from 0.12cm to 1.96m) The model grid file is also provided. Units are in J/m2 and can be converted in kg/m2 by dividing by 4e6. These outputs are associated with the "Assessing the time of emergence of marine ecosystems from global to local scales using IPSL-CM6A-LR/APECOSM climate-to-fish ensemble simulations" paper from the Earth's Future "Past and Future of Marine Ecosystems" Special Collection.

This dataset provides a World Ocean Atlas of Argo inferred statistics. The primary data are exclusively Argo profiles. The statistics are done using the whole time range covered by the Argo data, starting in July 1997. The atlas is provided with a 0.25° resolution in the horizontal and 63 depths from 0 m to 2,000 m in the vertical. The statistics include means of Conservative Temperature (CT), Absolute Salinity, compensated density, compressiblity factor and vertical isopycnal displacement (VID); standard deviations of CT, VID and the squared Brunt Vaisala frequency; skewness and kurtosis of VID; and Eddy Available Potential Energy (EAPE). The compensated density is the product of the in-situ density times the compressibility factor. It generalizes the virtual density used in Roullet et al. (2014). The compressibility factor is defined so as to remove the dependency with pressure of the in-situ density. The compensated density is used in the computation of the VID and the EAPE.

This data set provides a monthly time series of the upper limb of the Meridional Overturning Circulation (MOC) intensity at the A25 Greenland-Portugal OVIDE line from 1993 to 2015. The MOC was derived by combining AVISO altimetry with ISAS temperature and salinity data. The reader is referred to Mercier et al. (2015, Progress in Oceanography) for a full description of the method.

This data set contains the gridded hydrographic and transport data for the biennial Go-Ship A25 Greenland–Portugal OVIDE section from 2002 to 2012. The properties and transports are mapped on a 7km x 1m grid. Using a common grid facilitates the comparison between the different occupations of the line and the averaging. This data set was used in Daniault et al. (2016, Progress in Oceanography) to which the reader is referred for a description of the gridding method.

The Greenland-Portugal A25 OVIDE line is carried out biennially since 2002. The section is composed of 98 stations where hydrographic, biogeochemical and current measurements are carried out down to the bottom. OVIDE is a contribution to the international programs Go-Ship, IOCCP, and CLIVAR. This data set contains the final (adjusted) CTDO2 data. 

This delayed mode product designed for reanalysis purposes integrates the best available version of in situ data for ocean surface currents and current vertical profiles. It concerns three delayed time datasets dedicated to near-surface currents measurements coming from three platforms (Lagrangian surface drifters, High Frequency radars and Argo floats) and velocity profiles within the water column coming from the Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler (ADCP, vessel mounted only). The latest version of Copernicus surface and sub-surface water velocity product is also distributed from Copernicus Marine catalogue.
