Dynamic Atmospheric Correction

Types of dataset: auxiliary products
Contents: year by year directories (1992 - ongoing), day by day groups of files, 4 files a day (12:00, 6:00, 12:00, 18:00 GMT); grid is a regular grid (0.25°x0.25°)
Use: coastal oceanography, operational oceanography, ocean circulation, tide studies
Description: Dynamic Atmospheric Correction based on:
   - Mog2D barotropic model developed by Legos/CNRS for high frequency (i.e less than 20 days)
   - an IB correction developed by CLS, assuming a static response of the ocean to atmospheric forcing, and neglecting wind effects for low frequency (i.e more than 20 days)
