'''Short description:''' Altimeter satellite gridded Sea Level Anomalies (SLA) computed with respect to a twenty-year [1993, 2012] mean. The SLA is estimated by Optimal Interpolation, merging the L3 along-track measurement from the different altimeter missions available. Part of the processing is fitted to the European Sea area. (see QUID document or http://duacs.cls.fr [http://duacs.cls.fr] pages for processing details). The product gives additional variables (i.e. Absolute Dynamic Topography and geostrophic currents (absolute and anomalies)). It serves in delayed-time applications. This product is processed by the DUACS multimission altimeter data processing system. '''DOI (product):''' https://doi.org/10.48670/moi-00141

'''DEFINITION''' The omi_climate_sst_ibi_area_averaged_anomalies product for 2024 includes Sea Surface Temperature (SST) anomalies, given as monthly mean time series starting on 1982 and averaged over the IBI areas. The IBI SST OMI is built from the CMEMS Reprocessed European North West Shelf Iberai-Biscay-Irish areas (SST_MED_SST_L4_REP_OBSERVATIONS_010_026, see e.g. the OMI QUID, http://marine.copernicus.eu/documents/QUID/CMEMS-OMI-QUID-CLIMATE-SST- IBI_v3.pdf), which provided the SSTs used to compute the evolution of SST anomalies over the IBI areas. This reprocessed product consists of daily (nighttime) interpolated 0.05° grid resolution SST maps over the European North West Shelf Iberai-Biscay-Irish areas built from re-processed ESA SST CCI, C3S (Embury et al., 2019). Anomalies are computed against the 1991-2020 reference period. The reference for this OMI can be found in the first and second issue of the Copernicus Marine Service Ocean State Report (OSR), Section 1.1 (Roquet et al., 2016; Mulet et al., 2018). '''CONTEXT''' Sea surface temperature (SST) is a key climate variable since it deeply contributes in regulating climate and its variability (Deser et al., 2010). SST is then essential to monitor and characterise the state of the global climate system (GCOS 2010). Long-term SST variability, from interannual to (multi-)decadal timescales, provides insight into the slow variations/changes in SST, i.e. the temperature trend (e.g., Pezzulli et al., 2005). In addition, on shorter timescales, SST anomalies become an essential indicator for extreme events, as e.g. marine heatwaves (Hobday et al., 2018). '''CMEMS KEY FINDINGS ''' The overall trend in the SST anomalies in this region is 0.012 ±0.002 °C/year over the period 1982-2024. '''DOI (product):''' https://doi.org/10.48670/moi-00256

'''DEFINITION''' Volume transport across lines are obtained by integrating the volume fluxes along some selected sections and from top to bottom of the ocean. The values are computed from models’ daily output. The mean value over a reference period (1993-2014) and over the last full year are provided for the ensemble product and the individual reanalysis, as well as the standard deviation for the ensemble product over the reference period (1993-2014). The values are given in Sverdrup (Sv). '''CONTEXT''' The ocean transports heat and mass by vertical overturning and horizontal circulation, and is one of the fundamental dynamic components of the Earth’s energy budget (IPCC, 2013). There are spatial asymmetries in the energy budget resulting from the Earth’s orientation to the sun and the meridional variation in absorbed radiation which support a transfer of energy from the tropics towards the poles. However, there are spatial variations in the loss of heat by the ocean through sensible and latent heat fluxes, as well as differences in ocean basin geometry and current systems. These complexities support a pattern of oceanic heat transport that is not strictly from lower to high latitudes. Moreover, it is not stationary and we are only beginning to unravel its variability. '''CMEMS KEY FINDINGS''' The mean transports estimated by the ensemble global reanalysis are comparable to estimates based on observations; the uncertainties on these integrated quantities are still large in all the available products. At Drake Passage, the multi-product approach (product no. 2.4.1) is larger than the value (130 Sv) of Lumpkin and Speer (2007), but smaller than the new observational based results of Colin de Verdière and Ollitrault, (2016) (175 Sv) and Donohue (2017) (173.3 Sv). Note: The key findings will be updated annually in November, in line with OMI evolutions. '''DOI (product):''' https://doi.org/10.48670/moi-00247

'''Short description:''' For the Baltic Sea- The DMI Sea Surface Temperature reprocessed analysis provides daily gap-free sea surface temperature fields, referred as L4 product, at 0.02deg. x 0.02deg. horizontal resolution. It is produced by the DMI Optimal Interpolation (DMIOI) system (Høyer and She, 2007) to provide a high resolution (1/50deg. - approx. 2km grid resolution) daily analysis of the daily average sea surface temperature (SST) at 20 cm depth. It uses satellite data from infra-red radiometers, from the ESA SST_cci v3.0 (Embury et al., 2024) and Copernicus C3S projects, namely L2P data from (A)ATSRs, SLSTR and AVHRR for the period 1982-2021, L3U data from SLSTR and AVHRR for 2022-July 19 2024 and L2P data from SLSTR and AVHRR from July 20 2024 onward. For the Sea Ice Concentration it uses the Baltic high resolution sea ice concentration data from the Copernicus Marine Service SI TAC (SEAICE_BAL_PHY_L4_MY_011_019).
