(a)For the Met Office contribution, due to the production of hindcasts "on-the-fly", the CDS keyword 'system' does not have the same meaning as for the other contributors. More details here.
(b) Due to technical reasons, a new version of ECMWF SEAS5 data has been created using the keyword system=51. See details on Announcements (date 12/October/2022)
(c) Hindcast data for January 1993 is not available from MetOffice forecast systems (see "known issue" G4 on the data gaps section)
