  description: 'The Ocean Heat Content Climate Data Record (CDR) is a set of ocean
    heat content anomaly (OHCA) time-series for 1955-present on 3-monthly, yearly,
    and pentadal (five-yearly) scales. This CDR quantifies ocean heat content change
    over time, which is an essential metric for understanding climate change and the
    Earth''s energy budget. It provides time-series for multiple depth ranges in the
    global ocean and each of the major basins (Atlantic, Pacific, and Indian) divided
    by hemisphere (Northern, Southern).


    These Cloud Optimized GeoTIFFs (COGs) were created from NetCDF files which are
    delivered to Azure as part of the [NOAA Open Data Dissemination (NODD) Program](https://www.noaa.gov/information-technology/open-data-dissemination).

    For the NetCDF files, see collection `noaa-cdr-ocean-heat-content-netcdf`.
