Info

1. Brief  description:

The sea-ice cover data in the BoM re-forecasts is incorrect. The climatological evolution of sea ice in the BoM re-forecats is for 1 January through to early March (62 day re-forecasts) for all start dates. Therefore, the sea ice coverage is wrong in the S2S archive,  except for the forecasts that start on or near 1 January

2. Recommendation:

It is recommended to not download the BoM sea-ice cover re-forecast data until the correct data has been fully uploaded in the ECMWF S2S data server. There will be an announcement when the problem has been fixed.

Incorrect  values of 3 parameters in BoM real-time data since February 2020
Info

1. Brief  description:

Due to technical problem related to data encoding, 3 parameters could have incorrect values (very high maximum):

  • Convective precipitation (only step +24h)
  • Total precipitation (only step +24h)
  • Snow depth water equivalent (not only step +24h)

2. Recommendation:

Users should consider the issue when using affected parameters. The issue will be fixed only in the next planned model version ACCESS-S2 (implemented probably later in 2020)
