North Atlantic Ocean Drifter Dataset for Multivariate Probabilistic Regression with Natural Gradient Boosting

Dataset created for Multivariate Probabilistic Regression with Natural Gradient Boosting application section. Supplied for replication. Variables in the dataset:

• Tx, Ty, Wx, Wy: Wind Stress (Pa) (T), Wind Speed (m/s) (W) in the longitudinal (x) and latitudinal (y) directions.
• u_av, v_av: surface geostrophic sea water velocity (m/s)  longitudinal and latitudinal respectively.
• lon,lat: The longitude (-180,180) and latitude (-90,90) of the drifters.
• t: day of year (0,366).
• u, v: The velocities of the drifters (m/s).

Note u, v, Tx, Ty, Wx, Wy are all filtered as described in the papers supplemental information.
