Historical: hourly for gridded data. Averages for daily, monthly, seasonal (DJF, MAM, JJA, SON) and annual as NUTS0, NUTS2, MAR0 and MAR1. |
Seasonal Forecasts: 6-hour time step (gridded data). Averages for monthly, seasonal (DJF, MAM, JJA, SON) and annual are also computed for NUTS0 and MAR0 mean values. |
Projections: 3-hour time step (gridded data). Daily NUTS0, NUTS2, MAR0 and MAR1 averages are also computed. |
Time period
Historical: 1979 to present (ca. 1 month behind real time); updated every month based on ERA5T data availability. | ||||
Seasonal Forecasts: The hindcasts cover the period 1993-2016 for the three models used by C3S Energy: ECMWF Sys5, Météo-France Sys7 and UK Met Office Sys14. ECMWF has all the month, MTFR SY07 currently covers October to April with the rest of the months to be completed by mid- May 2020 as this is a new system. METO SY14 ranges from June to April (notice that METO SY14 is a rolling release model, hindcast have to be computed each months). The forecasts updated have been run every month from the first month of availability in the current version on the CDS: | ||||
Forecast availability | Forecast horizon | |||
ECMWF Sys5 | From January 2017 | 215 days, or 860 six-hourly time steps | ||
MTFR Sys7 | From October 2019 | 211 days, or 844 six-hourly time steps | ||
METO Sys14 | From June 2019 | 215 days, or 860 six-hourly time steps | ||
Projections: 1980 to 2098 (common period), with historical forcing to 2005, then RCP forcing. | ||||
Spatial resolution
Historical: 0.25° by 0.25° latitude/longitude, NUTS0 and NUTS2 (onshore), MAR0 and MAR1 (offshore). |
Seasonal Forecasts: 1° by 1° latitude/longitude and at country scale. The underlying forecast systems run at different resolutions. Data are also available as averages for more than 30 European countries as NUTS0 areas (onshore) and MAR0 (offshore). |
Projections: 0.25° by 0.25° latitude/longitude, NUTS0 and NUTS2 (onshore), MAR0 and MAR1 (offshore) |
