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) ... View entire text
