You may also browse a full list of all datasets held at the BADC . Once you have located a dataset of interest, the next step is to follow the link to the introductory page for the relevant dataset where you will find the BADC's helpfiles - from the catalogue search results, click on the link to Dataset Web Pages under the title of your chosen dataset. There is a slight complication at this stage, since the procedure for retrieving data files differs between unrestricted and restricted datasets .

Alternatively you may use the BADC Browse Archive Facility to retrieve the data.
