As part of the European Space Agency's (ESA) Sea Level Climate Change Initiative (CCI) project, a multi-satellite merged time series of monthly gridded Sea Level Anomalies (SLA) has been produced from satellite altimeter measurements. The Sea Level Anomaly grids have been calculated after merging the altimetry mission measurements together into monthly grids, with a spatial resolution of 0.25 degrees. This version of the product is Version 2.0. The following DOI can be used to reference the monthly Sea Level Anomaly product: DOI: 10.5270/esa-sea_level_cci-MSLA-1993_2015-v_2.0-201612 The complete collection of v2.0 products from the Sea Level CCI project can be referenced using the following DOI: 10.5270/esa-sea_level_cci-1993_2015-v_2.0-201612 When using or referring to the Sea Level cci products, please mention the associated DOIs and also use the following citation where a detailed description of the Sea Level_cci project and products can be found: Ablain, M., Cazenave, A., Larnicol, G., Balmaseda, M., Cipollini, P., Faugère, Y., Fernandes, M.

As part of the European Space Agency's (ESA) Sea Level Climate Change Initiative (CCI) project, a number of oceanic indicators of mean sea level changes have been produced from merging satellite altimetry measurements of sea level anomalies. The oceanic indicators dataset consists of static files covering the whole altimeter period, describing the evolution of the project's monthly sea level anomaly gridded product (see separate dataset record). The oceanic indicators that are provided are: 1) the temporal evolution of the global Mean Sea Level (MSL) DOI: 10.5270/esa-sea_level_cci-IND_MSL_MERGED-1993_2015-v_2.0-201612 ; 2) the geographic distribution of Mean Sea Level changes (MSLTR) DOI: 10.5270/esa-sea_level_cci-IND_MSLTR_MERGED-1993_2015-v_2.0-201612 ; 3) Maps of the amplitude and phase of the annual cycle (MSLAMPH) DOI: 10.5270/esa-sea_level_cci-IND_MSLAMPH_MERGED-1993_2015-v_2.0-201612.

As part of the European Space Agency's (ESA) Sea Level Climate Change Initiative (CCI) Project, Fundamental Climate Data Records (FCDRs) have been computed for all the altimeter missions used within the project. These FCDR's consist of along track values of sea level anomalies and altimeter standards for the period between 1993 and 2015. This version of the product is v2.0. The FCDR's are mono-mission products, derived from the respective altimeter level-2 products. They have been produced along the tracks of the different altimeters, with a resolution of 1Hz, corresponding to a ground distance close to 6km. The dataset is separated by altimeter mission, and divided into files by altimetric cycle corresponding to the repetivity of the mission.

This dataset contains estimations of Arctic sea level anomalies produced by the ESA Sea Level Climate Change Initiative project (Sea_level_cci), based on satellite altimetry from the ENVISAT and SARAL/Altika satellites. It has been produced by Collecte Localisation Satellites (CLS) and the Plymouth Marine Laboratory (PML). The retrieval of sea level in the Arctic sea ice covered region requires specific processing steps of the satellite altimetry measurements. For this dataset, a specific radar waveform classification method has been applied based on a neural network approach, and the waveform retracking is based on a new adaptive retracking that is able to process both open ocean and peaky echoes measured in leads without introducing any bias between the two types of surfaces. Editing and mapping processing steps have been optimized for this dataset

This dataset contains high latitude sea level anomalies produced by DTU (Technical University of Denmark) and TUM (Technical University of Munich) as part of the ESA Sea Level CCI (Climate Change Initiative) project, covering both the Arctic and Antarctic regions. The data comprises weekly means from August 1991 to April 2017 and has been obtained using satellite altimetry data from four satellite missions: ERS1 (weeks 0 - 217); ERS2 (weeks 218 - 573); Envisat (weeks 574 - 1020); CryoSat-2 (weeks 1021 - 1336). Two datasets are available: dataset #1 is based on the ALES+ retracking without correction of the inverse barometer whereas dataset #2 has been corrected for this effect. Dataset #1 is provided both 'masked' and 'unmasked', where the masked data have been masked using sea ice concentrations downloaded from osisaf.met.no/p/ice. Dataset #2 is provided both 'masked' and 'unmasked', where the masked data have had data points retrieved over land removed from the files.
