Summary
|
Abstract:
These are year-month means on 2.5 degree grids derived from DS111.2, [http://dss.ucar.edu/datasets/ds111.2] by DSS. Both surface and upper air. Bad grids found by Kevin Trenberth in TN-373 are excluded. ECMWF now has a description [http://www.ecmwf.int/products/data/operational_system/] of its operational model and its evolution online.
