ERA40 T85 Analysis Fields on Model Levels, created at NCAR

Entry ID: NCAR_DS124.2

[ Update this Record ]

Summary

Abstract: DS124.2 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 6-hourly upper air variables on 60 model levels were transformed from ...
