Maximum Daily Global Open Ocean Water Level

Collection: LISCOAST : Large Scale Integrated Sea-level and Coastal Assessment Tool 

Description

This dataset describes the maximum daily water level from 1-1-1959 to 31-12-2021 at 0.25x0.25 degrees resolution. At every grid node, the daily maximum water level is obtained by utilizing the principal components of the atmospheric conditions and the public available satellite derived sea level measurements. Aiming to facilitate the reproducibility of the dataset, it contains the coordinates of the atmospheric conditions and the corresponding principal components coefficients for the period 31-12-1992 to 31-10-2019 at 0.25x0.25 degrees resolution from the data-driven model.
