hasSummary |
-
Simon A. Josey, Elizabeth C. Kent, and Peter K. Taylor compiled the
SOC monthly mean flux atlas on a 1 degree by 1 degree grid. The
fields have been derived from the COADS Release 1a (1980-93) dataset
enhanced with additional metadata from the WMO47 list of ships.
The original version 1.1 atlas was completed in 1998. Additional
work was done on the heat flux components in 2002. The air-sea heat
flux was adjusted according to constraints determined from estimates
of oceanic heat transport. Through the adjustment process the
original imbalance of about 30 W/m^2 was reduced to about 2 W/m^2.
Both the original version 1.1 atlas and the adjusted air-fluxes are
available in this dataset.
