New release of the Finite-Size Lyapunov Exponents (FSLEs)
Category: Website updates
We are pleased to announce the new release of the AVISO+ dataset Finite-Size Lyapunov Exponents (FSLEs)
The maps of Backward-in-time, Finite-Size Lyapunov Exponents (FSLEs) and Orientations of associated eigenvectors have been updated after a whole reprocessing from January 1st 1994 to January 18th 2018. Data are computed over global ocean within the SALP/Cnes project in collaboration with CLS, LOcean and CTOH.
The main upgrades for this reprocessing are the following:
- madt_uv input data are derived from DUACS DT2018 instead of DUACS DT2014.
- Data are available daily from 01-01-1994 to 18-01-2018
- Initial separation is 0.02 degree instead of 0.04 degree. The filaments are much thinner.
Data format remains unchanged.
More information can be found on <link internal-link>the product page.
Data are available on FTP and on Gridded Data Extraction tool from : <link internal-link>My AVISO+ web page.
