Short summary
This research combines ocean profile data with satellite-tracked ocean vortex data to explore the vertical structure of ocean vortices globally. It integrates over 4 million vertical profiles with 35 million vortex observations. The dataset, processed using advanced computing, is openly accessible and offers a foundation for studying the role of ocean vortices on weather, climate, and ecosystems.
