Black Sea gridded decadal seasonal climatology for cold intermediate layer (CIL) cold content (CCC) (1/8°, 6 decades, 4 seasons) based on the collection of temperature and salinity profiles spanning 60 years (1955–2014).The CCC climatological fields were computed from the merged Black Sea dataset that combines data extracted from 3 major sources: 1) SeaDataNet infrastructure, 2) World Ocean Database, and 3) Coriolis Ocean Dataset for Reanalysis. The computation was done with the DIVAnd (Data-Interpolating Variational Analysis in n dimensions), version 2.6.2. The product was developed in framework of SeaDataCloud project, EC H2020 grant #730960. For data access please register at http://www.marine-id.org/.

Gridded product for visualization of Water body phosphate in the Black Sea generated by DIVA 4.6.9 using all EMODNET Chemistry data from 1960 to 2013. Depth range (IODE standard depths): 0 – 200m. DIVA settings: signal-to-noise ratio and correlation length were estimated using data mean distance as a minimum (for L), and both parameters vertically filtered. Background field: the data mean value is subtracted from the data. Detrending of data: no. Advection constraint applied: no. Every year of the time dimension corresponds to a 10-year centred average for each season: - winter: December - February, - spring: March - May, - summer: June - August, - autumn: September – November Units: umol/l

The SDC_BLS_CLIM_TS_V2 product contains Temperature and Salinity Climatologies for Black Sea including the seasonal and monthly fields for period 1955-2019 and seasonal fields for 6 decades starting from 1955 to 2019. The climatic fields were computed from the integrated Black Sea dataset that combines data extracted from the 3 major sources: 1) SeaDataNet infrastructure, 2) World Ocean Database, and 3) Coriolis Ocean Dataset for Reanalysis. The computation was done with the DIVAnd (Data-Interpolating Variational Analysis in n dimensions), version 2.6.4.
