<p class="MsoNormal">Currently there is no such publication/notes existent, although some descriptions can be found in README and User Guide. We are working on improving the meta data of the netCDF files to have more detailed descriptions of each field.

<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">“Geometry-Weighted” means the fields have been weighted by hFacC/hFacS/hFacW, the fraction of cell in vertical that is wet. They are non-dimensional and vary from 0 (for completely dry cells) to 1 (for completely wet cells).

<p class="MsoNormal">The constant density rhoConst in the model is 1029 kg/m^3.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">I am looking at some of the ECCOv4r3 data from the portal, and was wondering if there is a publication/notes detailing what the different fields are exactly?

<p class="MsoNormal">For example: what exactly does ''Geometry-Weighted'' mean? What value is used for 'rhoConst'?<o:p></o:p></p>
