Thermal efficiency potential dataset in the Western Atlantic coast (OTEC-BR)

It was created from monthly data from the well-known global database, SODA (Simple Ocean Data Assimilation, V3.15.2), choosing 40 years sample from 1983 to 2022. It presents an effective working area between latitudes 35.25°S and 10°N, longitudes 53.25°W and 24.75°W, a spatial resolution of 0.5x0.5° and a single level, as a result of the calculation between the surface levels and the 1000 m depth of the initial data.The data structure provides the monthly mean results of the parameter in question (in netcdf format), as well as 18 series corresponding to the points considered for the whole data sample (in txt format) useful to obtain any local statistics.
