Abstract
Investigating oceanic variations at multiple spatial and temporal scales is vital for an in-depth understanding of the ocean response to global climate change. However, the available observational datasets contain uncertainties and deficiencies that leave them insufficient for investigating global ocean variability with long temporal scales and/or meso spatial scales. Here, we present a daily and century-long (1901–2010) global oceanic simulation dataset with high resolution (1/10° horizontal resolution and 55 vertical layers) forced by 6-hour atmospheric data from ERA-20C. Preliminary evaluations demonstrate that this simulation can realistically reproduce the large-scale global ocean circulation and capture the essential features of global surface mesoscale eddies. This long-running high-resolution simulation dataset provides temporally highly resolved oceanic and flux variables. Together with its good performance in simulating the global oceanic state, this eddy-resolving simulation has the potential to help toward a better understanding of ocean variability at multiple spatial and temporal scales.
