ATLAS: A Novel Temperature Dataset for Northern High LAtitude Seas. 2004-2008

A novel temperature dataset for northern high latitude Seas (ATLAS) is a dataset of three-dimensional temperature derived from combining quality controlled Argo float measurements with marine mammal mounted Satellite Relay Data Loggers (SRDLs) profiles. Using data values gathered from across the North Atlantic region, a 1×1 degree gridded temperature dataset of the average monthly values from January 2004 to December 2008, with 15 vertical layers between 0–700 m was produced. Built as complementary to existing ship-based fields, the ATLAS dataset is a community resource to help determine the impacts of climate change on the Labrador and Nordic Seas regions. The data were collated by the National Oceanography Centre (NOC) and are made available from the British Oceanographic Data Centre (BODC).

    Statement

    This dataset was created by the novel temperature dataset for northern high latitude Seas (ATLAS) project funded scientists following their in-house data processing and quality control procedures. The data were then provided to the British Oceanographic Data Centre (BODC) for publication in the BODC Published Data Library (PDL).

    Instrument(s) used to collect data: salinity sensor; Argos doppler-localised transmitters; CTD; water temperature sensor.
