OVERVIEW Before the ARGO floats were deployed, there were so few temperature and salinity observations at depths below 700 meters that the NODC does not
present ocean heat content data during that period for depths of 0 - 2000 meters on an annual basis.

We
present new estimates of the variability of
ocean heat content based on: a) additional
data that extends the record to more recent years; b) additional historical
data for earlier years.
In the
present study, satellite altimetric height and historically available in situ temperature
data were combined using the method developed by Willis et al. [2003], to produce global estimates of upper
ocean heat content, thermosteric expansion, and temperature variability over the 10.5 - year period from the beginning of 1993 through mid-2003...
