Global surface ocean acidification indicators from 1750 to 2100 (NCEI Accession 0259391)

Published by NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information | National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, Department of Commerce | Metadata Last Checked: April 12, 2026 | Last Modified: 2025-04-25T00:00:00.000+00:00
This data package contains a hybrid surface OA data product that is produced based on three recent observational data products: (a) the Surface Ocean CO2 Atlas (SOCAT, version 2022), (b) the Global Ocean Data Analysis Product version 2 (GLODAPv2, version 2022), and (c) the Coastal Ocean Data Analysis Product in North America (CODAP-NA, version 2021), and 14 Earth System Models from the sixth phase of the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project (CMIP6). The trajectories of ten OA indicators, including fugacity of carbon dioxide, pH on Total Scale, total hydrogen ion content, free hydrogen ion content, carbonate ion content, aragonite saturation state, calcite saturation state, Revelle Factor, total dissolved inorganic carbon content, and total alkalinity content are provided under preindustrial conditions, historical conditions, and future Shared Socioeconomic Pathways: SSP1-19, SSP1-26, SSP2-45, SSP3-70, and SSP5-85 from 1750 to 2100 on a global surface ocean grid. These OA trajectories are improved relative to previous OA data products with respect to data quantity, spatial and temporal coverage, diversity of the underlying data and model simulations, and the provided SSPs over the 21st century. The median and standard deviation values stored as Excel files in the "Median_Std_surface" folder were area-averaged values under the IPCC business-as-usual Scenario, i.e., SSP5-8.5.
