Japanese Ocean Flux data sets with Use of Remote sensing Observations "Ocean actively changes heat, water and momentum with atmosphere at ocean surface. The exchanged heat, water and momentum are transported by general ocean and atmospheric circulations with global scale. Since the exchanging and transporting processes play important roles for global climate, estimates of those fluxes between atmosphere and ocean and of those transports by ocean and atmospheric circulations are quite important for understanding the mechanism of global climate. However, it is difficult to globally estimate those fluxes and transports by using in situ observation data such as ship observation data because in situ data are extremely sparse in time and space. However, we can derive considerably homogeneous data with high resolution using analysis and satellite data. Therefore, it is considered that analysis and satellite data are suitable for obtaining globally-covered fluxes between ocean and atmosphere.
