02-12-2021 ECCC forecast system change
The ECCC Global ensemble prediction system (GEPS) has been upgraded to the version 7 since 0Z run on with the main changes:
The version of the GEM model is upgraded to 5.1 with more advanced physics.
The number of vertical levels is increased from 81 to 85 for the data assimilation and from 45 to 85 for the forecast.
A Stochastic Parameter Perturbation (SPP) method is introduced to replace the Physics Tendency Perturbation (PTP).
20 years hindcast period changed from 1997-2017 to 2001 to 2020 from
06-10-2015 Scripts to help retrieving reforecasts data
We have documented a couple of cases on how to write scripts to retrieve data efficiently via the WebAPI. In order to do that one needs to know the frequency and availability of each Centre's re-forecast. These use cases are linked in the page with models' description (click on the model name in the first column there)
