It is available daily on 0.25° spatial resolution. The variables include latent heat (lh) and sensible heat (sh) flux, air temperature (ta), sea surface temperature (sst) and specific humidity (qa) at the reference height of 2m above the sea surface. The data also include wind speed (ws) at the reference height of 10m and saturation humidity (qs). This dataset is available to the public for a wide variety of uses including scientific research and analysis. completed historicalArchive NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information ncei.info@noaa.gov https://www.ncei.noaa.gov/contact HTTPS NCEI Contact Information Information for contacts at NCEI. information pointOfContact asNeeded https://www.ncei.noaa.gov/access/metadata/landing-page/bin/gfx?id=gov.noaa.nodc:0209225 Preview graphic PNG 0209225 NCEI ACCESSION NUMBER 2020-03-06 publication ABSOLUTE HUMIDITY AIR TEMPERATURE FLUX - HEAT WIND SPEED theme NODC DATA TYPES THESAURUS echo sounder radiometer satellite sensor - altimeter instrument NODC INSTRUMENT TYPES THESAURUS satellite data theme NODC OBSERVATION TYPES THESAURUS Chinese Academy of Sciences, Institute of Oceanology dataCentre NODC COLLECTING INSTITUTION NAMES THESAURUS Chinese Academy of Sciences, Institute of Oceanology dataCentre NODC SUBMITTING INSTITUTION NAMES THESAURUS South China Sea (Nan Hai) place NODC SEA AREA NAMES THESAURUS oceanography theme WMO_CategoryCode 2012-09-15 publication EARTH SCIENCE > ATMOSPHERE > ATMOSPHERIC TEMPERATURE EARTH SCIENCE > ATMOSPHERE > ATMOSPHERIC WATER VAPOR > WATER VAPOR INDICATORS > HUMIDITY > ABSOLUTE HUMIDITY EARTH SCIENCE > ATMOSPHERE > ATMOSPHERIC WINDS > SURFACE WINDS > WIND SPEED EARTH SCIENCE > OCEANS > OCEAN HEAT BUDGET > HEAT FLUX theme Global Change Master Directory (GCMD) Science Keywords 2026 revision 24 Earth Science Data and Information System, Earth Science Projects Division, Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC), National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Greenbelt MD https://forum.earthdata.nasa.gov/app.php/tag/GCMD%2BKeywords HTTPS GCMD Keyword Forum Page Global Change Master Directory (GCMD). 2025.
