Glider Data South Atlantic Subtropical Model Water (SAMOWA) Project 2018

Glider data collected at the South Atlantic ocean during the winter of 2018 (see Sato et al. (2024), JGR-Oceans, for details).

The files are organized by tracks performed by the glider.

The data are in Matlab format and the variables are:

dd is the julian day of 2018, lat is latitude, lon is longitude, pre is pressure, rhoi, density, 

and ssi and tti are the absolute salinity and the conservative temperature.

Uncompress the file with: tar xvf samowa_glider2018_mat.tgz

If you want to read this file in python, use: loadmat from scipy.io.

All variables are in SI units.
