  • The file “GCOS_EHI_1960-2020_Inland_Water_Heat_Content_data.nc” presents an updated estimate of the global heat storage within natural lakes and artificial reservoirs for the period 1960-2020. Several improvements have been implemented in comparison with Vanderkelen et al. (2020): new approach to estimate lake volume, new lake models considered, and an extension of the analysis period. The data are used in von Schuckmann et al. (2022).

  • Sentinel-3 OLCI images processed with the Atmospheric Correction for Optical Water Types, A4O [Hieronymi et al. in prep & 2023], and the water algorithm OLCI Neural Network Swarm, ONNS [Hieronymi et al., 2017]. ONNS derives inherent optical properties (IOPs) from which the concentrations of water constituents are estimated. In addition, the results of an Optical Water Type (OWT) classification based on A4O reflectances are provided [Bi and Hieronymi, 2024]. All available satellite data of a day for the region of interest are merged in a common grid at approximately original resolution. Information about the variables are given in the attached Additional Info.
