About
GOBAI-O2 is a gridded data product that provides three-dimensional monthly fields of dissolved oxygen in the global ocean from 2004 through 2021. It was constructed by training machine learning algorithms with observations of oxygen concentration ([O2]) from discrete shipboard measurements and autonomous sensors on biogeochemical Argo floats, then applying those machine learning algorithms to three-dimensional monthly gridded fields of temperature and salinity. The algorithms used to produce GOBAI-O2 have been validated using real observations and synthetic data from model output, and the data product itself has been compared against the World Ocean Atlas and selected discrete measurements. Results of these validation and comparison exercises are detailed in Sharp et al. (preprint).
