Global Ocean Wind L4 Reprocessed 6 hourly Observations

'''Short description:'''

For the Global Ocean - The IFREMER CERSAT Global Blended Mean Wind Fields include wind components (meridional and zonal), wind module, wind stress, and wind/stress curl and divergence. The associated error estimates are also provided. The estimation of the 6-hourly blended wind products make use of all of the the remotely sensed surface winds derived from scatterometers and radiometers available at this time (see PUM) and used as observation inputs for the objective method dealing with the calculation of 6-hourly wind fields over the global oceans. L4 winds are calculated from L2b products in combination with ERA interim wind analyses from January 1992 onwards. The analysis is performed for each synoptic time (00h:00; 06h:00; 12h:00; 18h:00 UTC) and with a spatial resolution of 0.25° in longitude and latitude over the global ocean.
