Resource Abstract:
- description: This dataset has daily Dynamic Height data (a measure of the elevation of the sea level, calculated by integrating
the specific volume anomaly of the sea water between the sea surface and 500 m depth) from the TAO/TRITON (Pacific Ocean,
https://www.pmel.noaa.gov/gtmba/ ), RAMA (Indian Ocean, https://www.pmel.noaa.gov/gtmba/pmel-theme/indian-ocean-rama ), and
PIRATA (Atlantic Ocean, https://www.pmel.noaa.gov/gtmba/pirata/ ) arrays of moored buoys which transmit oceanographic and
meteorological data to shore in real-time via the Argos satellite system. These buoys are major components of the CLIVAR climate
analysis project and the GOOS, GCOS, and GEOSS observing systems. Daily averages are computed starting at 00:00Z and are assigned
an observation 'time' of 12:00Z. For more information, see https://www.pmel.noaa.gov/gtmba/mission .; abstract:
