Page History

This confluence page provides a data catalogue for the SUMMIT 1.4 km NDJF seasonal run performed on the Oak Ridge supercomputer, which serves as a prototype dataset for the Destination Earth project.

The data is accessible via Polytope (see here) or via the ECMWF MARS Web API (see the data landing page and instructions here https://doi.org/10.21957/rfrp-8h86).

Temporal resolution

The output is at 3 hourly resolution. For the purposes of this sample, steps [0, 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21, 24, 27] have been made available. The run start date and time is 2018-11-01, 00:00:00.

More model steps and output variables output variables will be made available in due courseas required.

Spatial resolution

The output is provided on one of two types of horizontal grid, both of which correspond to approximately 1.4 km horizontal resolution:
