Abstract

This database contains the monthly mean and montly long term mean fields from the NCEP/NCAR Reanalysis 1960-2000. Files contain the following data: airsfc.mon.mean.nc - surface air temperature land.nc - land/sea mask slp.mon.mean.nc - sea level pressure sst.mnmean.nc - sea surface temperature (see SST_README for more details) uwnd.mon.mean.nc - U (eastward) component of wind vwnd.mon.mean.nc - V (northward) component of wind shum.mon.mean.nc - specific humidity (this file does not contain all vertical levels, unlike the other 3-d variables) For all the above, files with 'ltm' instead of 'mean' contain the long-term monthly mean data. Data were downloaded on 25/11/2009 from the Earth System Reseach Laboratory (ESRL) Physical Sciences Division (PSD) website. (http://www.esrl.noaa.gov/psd/data/gridded/reanalysis/)
