In June 2017, the second version of the Pacific 3D gridded Argo dataset (namely GDCSM_Argo) published online for free download. The data set was produced by the method of optimal interpolation which based on gradient-related scale correlation analysis, and resulted in 3D gridded data from 10m to 2000m. Surface salinity profiles were got through Akima extrapolation method and the surface temperature profiles were obtained by a temperature parameterize mode. Among them, the construction of the initial field, estimation of scale correlation and the confirmation of model parameters are completely depended on Argo data itself, not with other observations.
The time range of this dataset is: January 2004 to December 2015;Time resolution: monthly; Region: 120¡ãE~70¡ãW, 60¡ãS~60¡ãN; Horizontal resolution: 1¡ã lat¡Á1¡ã lon (longitude: 119.5:1:290.5; latitude: -60.5: 1:56.5); Standard layers are: 0m, 10m, 20m, 30m, 50m, 100m, 100m, 125m, 150m, 200m, 200m, 300m, 500m, 600m, 700m, 800m, 900m, 1000m, 1100m, 1100m, 1,200m, 1,500m, 1500m, 1750m and 2000m. Variables Contain: temperature, salinity, depth, time, longitude and latitude.
