As part of second objective of our research, we have created following datasets to explore diurnal variation in tropical oceanic mesoscale cold pools. These files are column-separated files (CSV) containing geophysical variables for RapidScat-Identified Gradient Features (GFs; Garg et al., 2020) and buoy-observed cold pools.

Following files are available for public access:
