Gridded Climatology of Maximum Likelihood Estimates of Temperatures using Data from the Dynamically Consistent Ensemble of Temperature (Version 1.0)

Calvert, Bruce

Dataset
Summary
This dataset is a mean surface temperature climatology for each calendar month and for each 5° latitude by 5° longitude grid cell of the Earth. The temperature climatology corresponds to the 1982-2014 reference period. This climatology was produced by blending an extension of the DCLSAT temperature climatology for land and sea ice regions with the DCSST temperature climatology for open sea regions. Results of sensitivity tests using alternate sea ice source datasets from the Japanese Meteorological Agency (COBE-SST2) and the National Snow and Ice Data Center (modified G10010v2 appended with G02202v4) are also available.

The maximum likelihood estimation approach allows for the estimated surface temperature climatology to be temporally and spatially complete for each calendar month and for the entire surface of the Earth.

Description
The quality of this dataset has been approved by Bruce T. T. Calvert on September 22, 2024. This dataset is a further derived product (classifying as a level 4 data processing level) derived from various source datasets, including sea ice coverage of HadISST2, land mask data of OSTIAv2, the land surface air temperature climatology of DCLSAT, the sea surface temperature climatology of DCSST, and surface elevation data of GMTED2010. Sensitivity tests of DCENT_MLE_v1.0 use alternate sea ice source datasets (COBE-SST2, G10010v2, and G02202v4). These source datasets either have had extensive quality control or are themselves further derived products based on source datasets that have had extensive quality control.
Description
Due to the maximum likelihood estimation approach used, the estimated surface temperature climatology is temporally and spatially complete for each calendar month and for the entire surface of the Earth. As a result, there are no missing values in the dataset.
