Global Ocean Monthly Mean Sea Surface Wind and Stress from Scatterometer and Model
'''Short description:'''
For the Global Ocean - The product contains monthly Level-4 sea surface wind and stress fields at 0.25 degrees horizontal spatial resolution. The monthly averaged wind and stress fields are based on monthly average ECMWF ERA5 reanalysis fields, corrected for persistent biases using all available Level-3 scatterometer observations from the Metop-A, Metop-B and Metop-C ASCAT, QuikSCAT SeaWinds and ERS-1 and ERS-2 SCAT satellite instruments. The applied bias corrections, the standard deviation of the differences and the number of observations used to calculate the monthly average persistent bias are included in the product.
