NCEP FNL Operational Model Global Tropospheric Analyses, April 1997 to June 2007

Entry ID: NCAR_DS083.0

[ Update this Record ]

Summary

Abstract: These NCEP FNL (Final) Operational Global Analysis data are on pairs of 2.5x2.5 degree hemispheric grids every twelve hours. This product was from the Global Forecast System (GFS) that was run operationally in near-real time at NCEP. The analyses are available on the surface, 16 mandatory levels from 1000mb to 10mb, boundary layer and some sigma layers, tropopause, and a few others. Parameters ...
