Description:

Abstract:

This dataset contains various output grids from the ECMWF operational model. All of the grids are on a gaussian (n80) grid with a resolution of approximately 1.125 degrees daily accumulations from forecast hours 12 - 36 of 12Z run. ECMWF now has a description [http://www.ecmwf.int/products/data/operational_system/] of its operational model and its evolution online.
