Abstract

Remotely-generated submesoscale coherent vortices (SCV) within Argo profiles. The data reveal the date, locations, and identification information of Argo profiles that pierced spicy-core (anomalously warm and salty) and minty-core (anomalously cold and fresh) SCVs. We also include statistics gathered for each SCV, such as core water mass characteristics and height/length scales. These data are described in McCoy et al. (2020); doi: 10.1016/j.pocean.2020.102452
