SSALTO/DUACS Experimental products: gridded velocities combining altimetry and SST

Types of dataset: Ssalto/Duacs mutlimission altimeter products "Experimental". Preparation to the SWOT Era.

Contents: multimission gridded optimally merged velocities combining altimetry and SST (1/4°x1/4° on a cartesian grid). 

Use: regional studies, ocean variability (mesoscale circulation,...)

Condition of access :  Users should keep in mind that these products are experimental products. Notably, they are not produced on an operational basis.

Description: global product resulting from specific processes, available in delayed time. Note that the gridded products combining altimetry and SST have been calculated in the framework of three different projects: 1/ a Marie-Curie Fellowship cofunded by the European Union under the FP7-PEOPLE-Cofunding of Regional, National and International Programmes Grant Agreement 600407 and the RITMARE FLAG project (2014-2016), 2/ the ESA Globcurrent project (2014-2018), 3/ the DUACS-MR CNES project (2016-2018).
