A new archive of climate model data for assessment studies From July 1997 to March 1998 we worked to establish data flows from three to five of the world's climate models. During March - September 1998, the data are flowing. But there is a lot of work left to do. Maintain the archives and help users We now have about 500 datasets. We updated many datasets during the year, and added some new ones.
Some data flows are large.
This is a large task. The normal and advanced analysis archives from NCEP operations were routinely updated. The advanced archives started in 1990. Forecasts are included. Most of these sets are now current through July 1998.
