As part of the European Space Agency's (ESA) Sea Level Climate Change Initiative (CCI) project, a multi-satellite merged time series of monthly gridded Sea Level Anomalies (SLA) has been produced from satellite altimeter measurements. The Sea Level Anomaly grids have been calculated after merging the altimetry mission measurements together into monthly grids, with a spatial resolution of 0.25 degrees. This version of the product is Version 2.0.

The following DOI can be used to reference the monthly Sea Level Anomaly product: DOI: 10.5270/esa-sea_level_cci-MSLA-1993_2015-v_2.0-201612
