- The single level variable "Surface roughness", which can be downloaded from CDS at analysis time is incorrect and should not be used.
- The physiography data including the divisions of sub-grid tiles into sea, nature, inland water and urban fractions is based on combined ECOCLIMAP-I and ECOCLIMAP-II data. However, ECOCLIMAP-II (Faroux et al. 2013, https://gmd.copernicus.org/articles/6/563/2013/ data is not defined for Iceland, Svalbard and the Russian Arctic islands. This means that there is a minor inconsistency in the static tile fraction fields in these regions with respect to all the other regions in CARRA. As an example this inconsistency might manifest in differences in urban areas outside the ECOCLIMAP-II region.
