NCEP Climate Forecast System Reanalysis (CFSR) 6-hourly Products, January 1979 to December 2010 ...

The National Centers for Environmental Prediction (NCEP) Climate Forecast System Reanalysis (CFSR) was initially completed over the 31-year period from 1979 to 2009 and has been extended to March 2011. CFSR was initialized 4 times per day (0000, 0600, 1200, and 1800 UTC), and the 6-hourly atmospheri...

Description
Summary:The National Centers for Environmental Prediction (NCEP) Climate Forecast System Reanalysis (CFSR) was initially completed over the 31-year period from 1979 to 2009 and has been extended to March 2011. CFSR was initialized 4 times per day (0000, 0600, 1200, and 1800 UTC), and the 6-hourly atmospheric, oceanic and land surface analyzed products are available at 0.3, 0.5, 1.0, 1.9, and 2.5 degree horizontal resolutions, along with forecast hours 1 through 6. However, not all parameters are available at all resolutions and some parameters are not analyzed (e.g. 2 meter temperature, 10 meter winds), so please consult the detailed metadata for exact descriptions of what is available. ...
