The mean sea surface (MSS) is an important field in physical oceanography, geophysics, and geodesy. In principle, it corresponds to the time-averaged height of the ocean surface. Auxiliary product : mean sea profile above a reference ellipsoid (T/P or WSG84). This surface is available on a regular grid (1/60°x1/60°, 1 minute). The mean sea surface MSS_CNES_CLS2025 (Charayon et al., in prep) has been computed using a 29-year [1993-2021] period of altimetric data. It was built exploring the use of SWOT KaRIn data to propose a new generation MSS able to better represent small wavelengths gapping state-of-the-art nadir-based MSS. Long wavelengths come from a MSS draft chosen to be the Hybrid 23 MSS (https://doi.org/10.24400/527896/a01-2024.002 ) low pass filtered at 20km since this nadir-based MSS model already captured well long wavelengths. The wavelengths shorter than 100km are improved thanks to a SWOT-KaRIn mean profile anomaly to the MSS draft. This mean profile anomaly is built with: - The SWOT-KaRIn science (L3 v3.0 Expert, cycles 1 to 31 included except cycle 17, https://doi.org/10.24400/527896/a01-2023.018) dataset - The experimental multimission gridded L4 sea level heights and velocities with SWOT using MIOST (https://doi.org/10.24400/527896/a01-2025.001 ). - In SWOT diamonds, since KaRIn data are not available, we used another innovation only based on DT2024 1Hz CryoSat2 and AltiKa SSHA data (https://doi.org/10.48670/moi-00146), period from 2010 to 2025, SSHA data relative to MSS Hybrid 23 low pass filtered at 5km. To build this nadir-based innovation, we used the static part of the mapping from MIOST method.

One mapping algorithm is proposed: the MIOST approach which provides which provides global Sea Surface Height (SSH) solutions. The MIOST method is capable of accounting for various modes of ocean surface topography variability (e.g., geostrophic, barotropic, equatorial wave dynamics) by constructing multiple independent components within a predefined covariance model.

Barystatic and manometric sea level changes represent the mass component of sea level changes at global and regional scales, respectively. Barystatic and manometric sea level changes are estimated using the satellite gravimetry measurements from the GRACE and GRACE-FO missions. Barystatic sea level changes are due to freshwater exchanges with the continents, including ice mass changes from Greenland, Antarctica and continental glaciers, as well as freshwater fluxes from continental areas (i.e. large river basins such as the Amazon or Mississippi). Manometric sea level changes are due to several processes, including the atmosphere - ocean circulation, sea level fingerprints or global water cycle. Climate modes, such as the El Nino Southern Oscillation, Arctic Oscillation, North Atlantic Oscillation or Southern Annular Mode, have also been shown to significantly influence manometric sea level variations (e.g., Pfeffer et al., 2022; https://doi.org/10.1007/s00382-021-05953-z). Two products are distributed: - Barystatic sea level changes from satellite gravimetry with uncertainties at 1-sigma: monthly time series, - Manometric sea level changes from satellite gravimetry with uncertainties at 1-sigma: monthly grids with 1x1 degree. The GRACE and GRACE Follow-On missions monitor the time-variations in the gravity field almost continuously since 2002. Numerous centers distribute time-lapse solutions of the Earth’s gravitational potential, delivered as Stokes coefficients, known as Level-2 solutions. The Level-2 solutions need to be corrected for several geophysical effects and instrumental errors, converted into surface mass anomalies and projected onto the ellipsoid. The resulting gridded surface mass anomalies with appropriate corrections applied are referred to as Level-3 solutions. Several sources of errors affect the solutions of Level-2 and-3, imposed by the satellite configuration, instrumental errors and uncertainties in the geophysical corrections used to process the measurements. We use the ensemble approach of Blazquez et al., (2018; https://doi.org/10.1093/gji/ggy293), to robustly estimate the manometric and barystatic sea level changes and their uncertainties.

This dataset provides an estimation of the climate feedback parameter and the climate sensitivity developed in collaboration by Magellium and LEGOS. It is based on the publication of Meyssignac et al., (2023, https://doi.org/10.1038/s43247-023-00887-2) . The product is a crucial study on Effective Climate Sensitivity (ECS), focusing on the time variation of the climate feedback parameter (λ). Understanding λ is fundamental as it quantifies the Earth’s radiative response to changes in global average temperature. A less negative λ directly implies a greater climate sensitivity to greenhouse gas concentrations. The product addresses the high uncertainty in ECS by providing an observational estimate of λ temporal variations since 1970. Estimates are derived from the global energy balance equation, regressing the radiative response against temperature over periods longer than 25 years. Users are primarily interested in the time series of λ and its associated uncertainties. The input data for computing λ is provided in a secondary "extended product" for transparency, allowing users to rebuild the indicators. The final product, available as a NetCDF file, can be downloaded in open access and is licensed for any project or study.

Barystatic and manometric sea level changes represent the mass component of sea level changes at global and regional scales, respectively. Barystatic sea level changes are estimated using the sea level budget (SLB) approach combining satellite altimetry with in-situ measurements of the seawater temperature and salinity. This SLB approach is adapted from Barnoud et al., (2023; https://doi.org/10.5194/os-19-321-2023). Manometric sea level variations and their uncertainties are not provided for the SLB approach, due to the high uncertainties associated with the drift of the halosteric component (e.g., Bouih et al., 2025; https://doi.org/10.5194/egusphere-egu24-16813).

The Sentinel-6 Level-2P skewness products was developed to estimate the skewness from Sentinel-6 LR (Low Resolution Mode) and HR (High Resolution Mode) acquisitions. That demonstration product is generated by different retracking processes, provides an initial estimation of such a phenomenon and allows a finer description of the sea state.

In recent years, large datasets of in situ marine carbonate system parameters (partial pressure of CO2 (pCO2), total alkalinity, dissolved inorganic carbon and pH) have been collated. These carbonate system datasets have highly variable data density in both space and time, especially in the case of pCO2, which is routinely measured at high frequency using underway measuring systems. This variation in data density can create biases when the data are used, for example for algorithm assessment, favouring datasets or regions with high data density. A common way to overcome data density issues is to bin the data into cells of equal latitude and longitude extent. This leads to bins with spatial areas that are latitude and projection dependent (eg become smaller and more elongated as the poles are approached). Additionally, as bin boundaries are defined without reference to the spatial distribution of the data or to geographical features, data clusters may be divided sub-optimally (eg a bin covering a region with a strong gradient). To overcome these problems and to provide a tool for matching in situ data with satellite, model and climatological data, which often have very different spatiotemporal scales both from the in situ data and from each other, a methodology has been created to group in situ data into ‘regions of interest’, spatiotemporal cylinders consisting of circles on the Earth’s surface extending over a period of time. These regions of interest are optimally adjusted to contain as many in situ measurements as possible. All in situ measurements of the same parameter contained in a region of interest are collated, including estimated uncertainties and regional summary statistics. The same grouping is done for each of the other datasets, producing a dataset of matchups. About 35 million in situ datapoints were then matched with data from five satellite sources and five model and re-analysis datasets to produce a global matchup dataset of carbonate system data, consisting of 287,000 regions of interest spanning 54 years from 1957 to 2020. Each region of interest is 100 km in diameter and 10 days in duration. An example application, the reparameterisation of a global total alkalinity algorithm, is shown. This matchup dataset can be updated as and when in situ and other datasets are updated, and similar datasets at finer spatiotemporal scale can be constructed, for example to enable regional studies. This dataset was funded by ESA Satellite Oceanographic Datasets for Acidification (OceanSODA) project which aims at developing the use of satellite Earth Observation for studying and monitoring marine carbonate chemistry. **This version is now superseded by the version 4 with higher spatial and temporal resolution**
