The variables are :

vectors

Y : domain in latitude    : 0N - 60N, grid pts every 1 deg  
X : domain in longtitude  : 20W- 50W, grid pts every 1 deg
Z : domain in depth       : 0-3000m , grid pts every 10m
T : domain in time        : 1,2,3,4 , grid pts every season

Matrices

temps : seasonal temperature (matrix form temps(Y,X,Z,T))
tempa : annual   temperature (matrix form tempa(Y,X,Z,T))
sals  : seasonal salinity    (matrix form sals(Y,X,Z,T))
sala  : annual   salinity    (matrix form sala(Y,X,Z,T))


you can load them in Matlab with the command : load (examp: load X)


The datasets are from the ldeo library
