Black Sea, DIVAnd 4D 6-year seasonal analysis of Water body phosphate 1980/2023 v2025 [time][lat][lon], 0.05deg, 1982-2020

The horizontal resolution of the produced DIVAnd maps grids is 0.05 degrees. The vertical resolution is 15 depth levels: 0, 5, 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90, 100, 125, 150, 200m The horizontal correlation length: 80km. The vertical correlation length (in meters): twice the vertical resolution (10, 10, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 50, 50, 100, 100).

The error variance (epsilon2): 1 An anamorphosis transformation was applied to the data: threshold value=200. Background field: not used. Quality control of the observations was applied using the interpolated field: QCMETHOD=3 and visual inspection (Observations with residuals outside the minimum and maximum values of the 99% quantile were discarded from the analysis after thoroughly visual inspection)
