ATLANTIC_CH04_Product_2 / Bottom temperature time-series (1915-2014)

Pentadal (5-year average) resolution time-series of bottom temperature for North Atlantic ocean area deeper than 1000m. Calculate the 5 year average bottom temperature at each point on the grid and then calculate the area weighted average.

Purpose
Challenge is to understand the evolution of the bottom temperature of the North Atlantic over the last Century. This EMODnet Atlantic Checkpoint data product is the result of a “challenge” stress test forming a part of a group of tests to evaluate marine data capacity according to set user requirements. The products do not constitute a formal climate assessment and should not be used as such.

This EMODnet Atlantic Checkpoint data product (the “Product”) is the result of a “challenge” stress test specified by the call for tenders No MARE/2012/11. The challenge partners ( "the producer") were commissioned to perform a number of tests to evaluate marine data according to set user requirements. This product and any resultant data and metadata produced is a consequence of these tests and provided for interest only. The Product is provided on an “as is” basis, and the producer disclaims any and all warranties, conditions, or representations (express, implied, oral or written), relating to the Product or any part thereof, including, without limitation, any and all implied warranties of quality, performance, suitability or fitness for a particular purpose to the full extent permitted by law. The Producer and the Atlantic Checkpoint partners accept no liability for loss suffered or incurred as a result of reliance on the Product or any output of its use. The Producer shall not be liable for any economic loss, loss of profit, loss of business or contract, depletion of goodwill or otherwise, in each case whether direct, or indirect or any indirect loss whatsoever (howsoever caused) including loss or damage suffered as a result of an action brought by any person which arise out of or in connection with the use of the Product or inability to use the Product
Use limitation
Limited: The product fails in most aspects to meet the objectives but meet some.
Use limitation

• Temporal resolution objectives were not achieved for that product.

• Spatial resolution of 1 degree is suitable for the basin scale analysis;

• As a basin wide average care is also needed in interpretation. This meets the challenge objective to test the data availability but there would be alternative metrics of subsurface change appropriate as part of a climate assessment while this should not be used for such a purpose.

In the absence of a full research project the input data needs to come from a high level product as the raw data is too sparse, in order to create a robust optimal analysis of the sparse data the producers have to bin the data into a course resolution vertically and temporally, and can only do this when the data is adequate. So covering the full century at 5 year resolution is not possible, as a basin wide average care is also needed in interpretation. The spatial coverage is adequate but for a timeseries like this the primary need is for the temporal coverage and so this product is limited.

This EMODnet Atlantic Checkpoint data product is the result of a “challenge” stress test forming a part of a group of tests to evaluate marine data capacity according to set user requirements. The products do not constitute a climate assessment and should not be used for this purpose.

Statement

• In the absence of a full research project the upstream data come from a high-level product as the raw data is sparse in both time and space. To create a robust optimal analysis of the sparse data the high level analysis have to bin the raw data into a course resolution vertically and temporally, and can only do this when the data is adequate. Covering the full century at 5 year resolution is not possible.

• As a basin wide average care is also needed in interpretation. The spatial coverage is adequate but for a timeseries like this the primary need is for the temporal coverage and so this product is limited.
