The Black Sea gridded monthly climatology for cold intermediate layer (CIL) cold content (CCC) (1/8°, 12 months) based on the collection of temperature and salinity profiles spanning 35 years (1955–1999).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/.

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.
