Short summary
SHELDA is sub-hourly European quality controlled sea level dataset with 257 records in NetCDF format, each representing a quality-controlled time series sampled at intervals between 1 and 15 min, along with residual derived by removing tidal components. It provides reliable, high-quality data essential for accurately analysing short-term sea level variations and extreme events, which are often overlooked due to limited resolution or insufficient quality control in existing datasets.
