Marine Heatwaves and Cold Spells: Dataset and Methods

Cefas Data Cube Viewer which can be accessed here: https://eutro-cube.cefas.co.uk/_

This portal contains Ostia Marine Heatwaves (MHW) and Cold Spells (MCS) dataset between 2020-present. There are following datasets:

  • Daily MCS Flag: sea surface temperature below 10th percentile computed from 10 years of OSTIA L4 Reprocessed data for the particular day
  • Daily MHW Flag: sea surface temperature above 90th percentile computed from 10 years of OSTIA L4 Reprocessed data for the particular day
  • MCS Duration: The number of consecutive days since the trigger of the MCS in 10 days rolling window
  • MHW Duration: The number of consecutive days since the trigger of the MHW in 10 days rolling window
  • MCS Warning: Pixels, where sea surface temperature has been below 10th percentile for 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 days. This shows areas which could potentially become MCSs= a pixel being flagged as MCS 5 consecutive days in a row
  • MHW Warning: Pixels, where sea surface temperature has been above 90th percentile for 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 days. This shows areas which could potentially become MHWs= a pixel being flagged as MHW 5 consecutive days in a row
