ECMWF Re-analysis Advanced Global Supplementary Fields, 1979Jan-1993Dec

Entry ID: NCAR_DS115.5

[ Update this Record ]

Summary

Abstract: This dataset contains high resolution supplementary grids from the ECMWF reanalysis project. The grids are all on a reduced gaussian (n80) grid with an approximate resolution of 1.125 degrees. This fields are all derived from forecasts. More recent reanalyses have been run by ECMWF and are available in the ERA-40 [http://dss.ucar.edu/pub/era40] and the ERA-Interim [http://dss.ucar.edu/datasets/ds627.0] datasets.
