IBTrACS, International Best Track Archive for Climate Stewardship, version v04r00, Last Three Years

Summary:
IBTrACS - International Best Track Archive for Climate Stewardship - version v04r00, Position, intensity and other information for known tropical cyclones. The intent of the IBTrACS project is to overcome best track data availability issues that arise from multiple agencies producing data for different storms in different formats. This was achieved by working directly with all the Regional Specialized Meteorological Centers and other international centers and individuals to create a global best track dataset, merging storm information from multiple agencies into one product and archiving the data for public use.

NDBC Standard Meteorological Buoy Data, 1970-present

Summary:
The National Data Buoy Center (NDBC) distributes meteorological data from
moored buoys maintained by NDBC and others. Moored buoys are the weather
sentinels of the sea. They are deployed in the coastal and offshore waters
from the western Atlantic to the Pacific Ocean around Hawaii, and from the
Bering Sea to the South Pacific. NDBC's moored buoys measure and transmit
barometric pressure; wind direction, speed, and gust; air and sea
temperature; and wave energy spectra from which significant wave height,
dominant wave period, and average wave period are derived. Even the
direction of wave propagation is measured on many moored buoys. See
https://www.ndbc.noaa.gov/measdes.shtml for a description of the measurements.

The source data from NOAA NDBC has different column names, different units,
and different missing values in different files, and other problems
(notably, lots of rows with duplicate or different values for the same time
point). This dataset is a standardized, reformatted, and lightly edited
version of that source data, created by NOAA National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) Southwest Fisheries Science Center (SWFSC) ERD (email:
erd.data at noaa.gov). Before 2020-01-29, this dataset only had the data
that was closest to a given hour, rounded to the nearest hour. Now, this
dataset has all of the data available from NDBC with the original time
values. If there are multiple source rows for a given buoy for a given
time, only the row with the most non-NaN data values is kept. If there is
a gap in the data, a row of missing values is inserted (which causes a nice
gap when the data is graphed). Also, some impossible data values are
removed, but this data is not perfectly clean. This dataset is now updated
every 5 minutes.

This dataset has both historical data (quality controlled, before
2022-10-01T00:00:00Z) and near real time data (less quality controlled,
which may change at any time, from 2022-10-01T00:00:00Z on).

Saildrone Hurricane Monitoring 2021 NRT data

Summary:
Saildrone Hurricane Monitoring 2021 Near Real Time (NRT) data, drone 1060. Five Gen6 Saildrone Explorer USVs were launched in the Atlantic Ocean for the duration of the 2021 Atlantic Hurricane Season. These USVs were equipped with a 'hurricane wing' designed specifically to withstand hurricane-strength winds and waves. The five objectives of this mission  include (1) advancing the CONOPS of steering and operating USVs towards strong low-pressure systems, (2) coordinating with underwater gliders, (3) developing CONOPS for coordinating with UAVs, (4) developing CONOPS for using multiple USVs to observe the air-sea interface ahead, inside and behind hurricanes, and (5) provision of real-time data for ingestion to Global Telecommunications System (GTS) and reception by operational data assimilation and forecast systems.

Using Uncrewed Surface Vehicles (USV) to observe air-sea interaction associated with Tropical Cyclones (TC), which is critical to TC intensification. This mission will deploy 7 USVs during the 2022 hurricane season to observe the air-sea interaction before, during and after hurricanes.

Satellite Ocean Heat Content (OHC) 2012

Summary:
The Satellite Ocean Heat Content (Office of Habitat Conservation (OHC)) Suite system produces two OHC files in ASCII and Network Common Data Format (NetCDF) where the output is defined on a 0.25 degree grid. For the daily files, the fields are: latitude, longitude, sea surface temperature (SST) in ï¿½C, sea surface height anomaly (SSHA) in cm, mapping error, depths of 20ï¿½C (D20) and 26ï¿½C (D26) isotherms, ocean mixed layer depth (MLD), all in meters, and a satellite derived ocean heat content (OHC) in kJ/cm2. Maintenance level is 8x7, since it runs once daily during normal working hours. Return to service should be as soon as possible. The requirements were for ASCII and NetCDF output files, as well as GIF images. The files were to contain latitude, longitude, sea surface height anomaly, OA mapping error, sea surface temperature, depth of the 20ï¿½C isotherm, depth of the 26ï¿½C isotherm, mixed layer depth, and ocean heat content. OHC is mapped at 0.25 degree resolution with an accuracy within 10 to 15% of in situ data and a latency of 36 hours. The latency of 36 hours is due to the receipt/processing required for the Sea Surface Height Anomaly data. Five GIF images were also to be created each day for OHC, SST, 20 degree isotherm, 26 degree isotherm, and Mixed Layer Depth.

Summary:
NOAA/National Centers for Environmental Information (NCEI) 1/4 Degree Daily Optimum Interpolation Sea Surface Temperature (OISST) Analysis, Version 2.1 - Final. NOAAs 1/4-degree Daily Optimum Interpolation Sea Surface Temperature (OISST) (sometimes referred to as Reynolds SST, which however also refers to earlier products at different resolution), currently available as version v02r01, is created by interpolating and extrapolating SST observations from different sources, resulting in a smoothed complete field. The sources of data are satellite (Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer (AVHRR)) and in situ platforms (i.e., ships and buoys), and the specific datasets employed may change over time. At the marginal ice zone, sea ice concentrations are used to generate proxy SSTs.  A preliminary version of this file is produced in near-real time (1-day latency), and then replaced with a final version after 2 weeks. Note that this is the AVHRR-ONLY DOISST, available from Oct 1981, but there is a companion DOISST product that includes microwave satellite data, available from June 2002

WaveWatch III (WW3) Global Wave Model 2013

Summary:
Through a collaborative effort with NOAA/National Centers for Environmental Prediction (NCEP) and National Weather Service (NWS) Honolulu, the University of Hawaii has implemented a global-scale WaveWatch III (WW3) 7-day model with a 5-day hourly forecast at approximately 50-km or 0.5-deg resolution. The global model is forced with NOAA/NCEP's Global Forecast System (GFS) winds. This model is designed to capture the large-scale ocean waves and provide spectral boundary conditions for the Hawaii and other Pacific regional WW3 models. While considerable effort has been made to implement all model components in a thorough, correct, and accurate manner, numerous sources of error are possible. As such, please use these data with the caution appropriate for any ocean related activity.

Wind, All Metop ASCAT, 0.25Â°, Global, Near Real Time, 2013 (1 Day)

Summary:
NOAA CoastWatch distributes near real time wind data originating with wind velocity measurements from the Advanced SCATterometer (ASCAT) instruments onboard all European Organisation for the Exploitation of Meteorological Satellites (EUMETSAT)'s MetOp satellites.  ASCAT is a microwave scatterometer designed to measure surface winds over the global ocean.  Wind velocity is processed to wind divergence by NOAA CoastWatch. (This is a 1 day composite.)
