Project World Ocean Circulation (WOC).-- Data acquisition: Scatterometer datasets (ASCAT-A,B,C, OSCAT and OSCAT2) and stress-equivalent ERA5 winds provided by Royal Netherlands Meteorological Institute (KNMI). Filenames: 2020010103-WOC-L4-STRESS_ERAstar_GLO_0125_1H_R20191231T18_09-v2.0-fv1.0.nc. Sensor: ASCAT-A, -B, -C onboard the EUMETSAT Metop satellite series, OSCAT onboard the Oceansat-2 and OSCAT2 onboard SCATSat-1. Spatial resolution: 0.125 degree. Spatial grid: WGS 84 / Regular longitude-latitude, The ERA* stress-equivalent wind (U10S) and stress vector product is a correction of the ECMWF ERA5 output by means of geo-located scatterometer-ERA5 differences over a few days temporal window. ERA* can correct for local, persistent NWP model output errors associated with physical processes that are absent or misrepresented by the model, e.g., strong current effects (such as WBCS, highly stationary), wind effects associated with the ocean mesoscales (SST), coastal effects (land see breezes, katabatic winds), PBL parameterization errors, and large-scale circulation effects, e.g., at the ITCZ, ESA Contract No. 4000130730/20/I-NB, L4 Erastar stress equivalent model wind u component at 10 m, erastar stress equivalent model wind v component at 10 m, erastar eastward wind stress, erastar northward wind stress, era5 stress equivalent model wind u component at 10 m, era5 stress equivalent model wind v component at 10 m, era5 eastward wind stress, era5 northward wind stress, number of scatterometer samples, land sea ice quality flag, Peer reviewed
