Globcurrent Combined (Absolute Geostrophic + Ekman) Surface Current Velocities over Global Ocean on a 6-hourly 0.25° Resolution Grid, version 3

This dataset contains the version 3 of combined surface current velocities, i.e. absolute geostrophic velocities products from multi-satellite observations over Global Ocean added to Hs depth Ekman velocities computed from ECMWF wind stress with an Ekman model fitted onto drifting buoys[Rio et al. 2014], on a geographical grid with 0.25 degree resolution, from 1993 to 2017.
