GLOBAL OCEAN L4 SIGNIFICANT WAVE HEIGHT FROM REPROCESSED SATELLITE MEASUREMENTS
'''Short description:'''
Multi-Year gridded multi-mission merged satellite significant wave height based on CMEMS Multi-Year level-3 SWH datasets itself based on the ESA Sea State Climate Change Initiative data Level 3 product (see the product WAVE_GLO_PHY_SWH_L3_MY_014_005). Only valid data are included. It merges along-track SWH data from the following missions: Jason-1, Jason-2, Envisat, Cryosat-2, SARAL/AltiKa, Jason-3 and CFOSAT. Different SWH fields are produced: VAVH_DAILY fields are daily statistics computed from all available level 3 along-track measurements from 00 UTC until 23:59 UTC on a 2° horizontal grid ; VAVH_INST field provides an estimate of the instantaneous wave field at 12:00UTC (noon) on a 0.5° horizontal grid, using all available Level 3 along-track measurements and accounting for their spatial and temporal proximity.
