CFSR: Climate Forecast System Reanalysis
The National Centers for Environmental Prediction (NCEP) Climate Forecast System Reanalysis (CFSR) was designed and executed as a global, high-resolution, coupled atmosphere-ocean-land surface-sea ice system to provide the best estimate of the state of these coupled domains over the 32-year period of record from January … climate daylight flux forecast geophysical ncep -
CFSV2: NCEP Climate Forecast System Version 2, 6-Hourly Products
The National Centers for Environmental Prediction (NCEP) Climate Forecast System (CFS) is a fully coupled model representing the interaction between the Earth's atmosphere, oceans, land, and sea ice. CFS was developed at the Environmental Modeling Center (EMC) at NCEP. The operational CFS was upgraded to … climate daylight flux forecast geophysical ncep -
Daymet V4: Daily Surface Weather and Climatological Summaries
Daymet V4 provides gridded estimates of daily weather parameters for Continental North America, Hawaii, and Puerto Rico (Data for Puerto Rico is available starting in 1950). It is derived from selected meteorological station data and various supporting data sources. Compared to the previous version, Daymet … climate daily daylight flux geophysical nasa -
