Global Ocean, near-surface zonal and meridional raw velocities measured by High Frequency radars

Global Ocean - near-surface zonal and meridional raw velocities measured by High Frequency radars. Sea surface currents recorded by High Frequency (HF) radar in the north-western Mediterranean Sea. The network has been in situ on the French Riviera since 2012 and is operated by MIO - the Mediterranean Institute of Oceanography (UMR Aix Marseille Universite, CNRS, IRD, Universite de Toulon).

HF radar daily averaged sea surface current filterd by dineof

Daily High Frequency Radar (HFR) surface current data (radial velocity files and total velocity file) from 2 different stations located on the French Mediterranean coast (Toulon), spanning from January 2012 to December 2019. The radial datasets have been processed to remove outliers. Then the gaps in the data have been filled using the DINEOF algorithm. The total velocity is then reconstructed from the filled radial velocity files, and projected onto a cartesian grid of 1kmx1km.
