The Digital Terrain Model of the Bay of Biscaye and of the Channel is the result of the processing of a compilation of single and multibeam echosounder data, of DTMs and of chart countours produced before 2008 for hydrodynamic modeling..

NOAA produces two lines of gridded 0.02deg super-collated L3S LEO SST datasets from Low Earth Orbiting (LEO) satellites, one from the NOAA afternoon JPSS (L3S_LEO_PM) and the other from the EUMETSAT mid-morning Metop-FG (L3S_LEO_AM). The L3S_LEO_AM is derived from Metop-A, -B and -C. The Metop-FG satellite program was jointly established by ESA and EUMETSAT. The US NOAA, under the Initial Joint Polar System Agreement with EUMETSAT, has contributed three AVHRR sensors capable of collecting and transmitting data in the Full Resolution Area Coverage (FRAC; 1km/nadir) format. The L3S_LEO_AM dataset is produced by aggregating three L3U datasets from MetOp-FG satellites ( http://doi.org/10.5067/GHMTA-3US28 , http://doi.org/10.5067/GHMTB-3US28 , http://doi.org/10.5067/GHMTC-3US28 ) and covers from Dec 2006-present. The L3S-LEO-AM data are reported in two files per 24hr interval, one daytime and one nighttime (nominal Metop local equator crossing times around 09:30/21:30, respectively), in NetCDF4 format, compliant with the GHRSST Data Specification version 2 (GDS2). The Near-Real Time (NRT) L3S-LEO data are archived at PO.DAAC with approximately 6 hours latency and then replaced by the Delayed Mode files about 2 months later, with identical file names. The NRT/DM data are seamlessly stitched with the full-mission Reanalysis (RAN). In addition to SST, the L3S-LEO files report the location and intensity of thermal fronts. The ACSPO L3S products are monitored and validated against in situ data in the NOAA iQuam system ( https://www.star.nesdis.noaa.gov/socd/sst/iquam ) in the NOAA SQUAM system ( https://www.star.nesdis.noaa.gov/socd/sst/squam ). Quality of SST imagery and clear-sky mask is evaluated in the NOAA ARMS system ( https://www.star.nesdis.noaa.gov/socd/sst/arms ). NOAA plans to include data from other mid-morning platforms and sensors, such as Metop-SG METImage, into L3S_LEO_AM.

One mapping algorithm is proposed: the MIOST approach which give the global SSH solutions: the MIOST method is able of accounting for various modes of variability of the ocean surface topography (e.g., geostrophic, barotrope, equatorial waves dynamic, etc.) by constructing several independent components within an assumed covariance model.

Level 2 skin Sea Surface Temperature derived from IASI on Metop, global and provided in full-resolution swath (12 km at nadir to 40 km), in GHRSST compliant netCDF format. SST is retrieved using a multispectral algorithm and a cloud mask. Atmospheric profiles of water vapor and temperature from a numerical weather prediction model, Sea Surface Temperature from an analysis, together with a radiative transfer model, are used to correct the multispectral algorithm for regional and seasonal biases due to changing atmospheric conditions. The quality of the products is monitored regularly by daily comparison of the satellite estimates against buoy measurements. The product format is compliant with the GHRSST Data Specification (GDS) version 2. Users are advised to use data only with quality levels 3, 4 and 5.

The SWOT KaRIn Level-3 Wind Wave product (L3_LR_WIND_WAVE) is an innovative product derived from the Unsmoothed L3_LR_SSH product (DOI: 10.24400/527896/A01-2024.003), which is based on the algorithm presented by Ardhuin et al. (2024). L3_LR_WIND_WAVE takes advantage of the KaRIn Low Rate (LR) chain's ability to resolve waves with wavelengths greater than 500 meters (approximately 18 seconds) and provides detailed information on the characteristics of these wave regimes. This includes significant wave height (SWH), dominant wavelength, and wave propagation direction. These regimes are associated with long-period swells and extreme events that play a critical role in ocean dynamics, coastal processes, and maritime operations. The SWOT L3_LR_WIND_WAVE product is organized into two subproducts, "Light" and "Extended". The L2_LR_SSH "Extended" product is described in this metadata sheet. The "Light" L3_LR_WIND_WAVE (also known as the "lightweight" product) includes the SWOT L3_LR_SSH 250-m SSHA spectrum, corrected for instrumental effects and expressed in both Cartesian and polar coordinates. It also includes the swell partition of the spectrum and the wave parameters integrated over this partition, for both the WW3 model and the KaRIn model (significant wave height, wavelength, and direction). The "Extended" L3_LR_WIND_WAVE includes the aforementioned variables plus the WW3 spectrum in the same frequency grid as the KaRIn spectrum and the KaRIn transfer functions used for correction, as well as some parameters derived from KaRIn observations (e.g., coherence, mean backscatter).
