Abstract:
This data set contains 3-month gridded averages of dynamic ocean topography (DOT) over midlatitude, north-polar, and south-polar grids derived from the along-track ATLAS/ICESat-2 L3A Ocean Surface Height product (ATL12). Monthly gridded sea surface height (SSH) can be calculated by adding the mean DOT and the weighted average geoid height also provided. Both single beam and all-beam gridded averages are available. Simple averages, degree-of-freedom averages, and averages interpolated to the center of grid cells are included, as well as uncertainty estimates.
