ERA40 T85 Monthly Mean Analysis Fields on Pressure Surfaces, created at NCAR

Entry ID: NCAR_DS126.1

[ Update this Record ]

Summary

Abstract: DS126.1 represents a dataset implemented and computed by NCAR's Data Support Section, and forms an essential part of efforts undertaken in late 2004, early 2005, to produce an archive of selected segments of ERA-40 on a standard transformation grid. In this case, ERA-40 monthly mean upper air variables (designated as MODA or moda below) ...
