1. Brief  description:

The data values for snow density are very different to other models. According to CMA the reason is that their model produces very little amount of snow. The checked extremes of the snow density have to been relaxed because of that specifically for CMA data.

2. Recommendation:

Users should consider it when using CMA snow density data

1. Brief  description:

The CMA reforecasts after model change in November 2019 were wrongly encoded as the fixed type. Since the run 2020-06-25 the encoding was fixed to the correct on-the-fly type. The period Nov 2019 - Jun 2020 will need to be fixed so that all reforecast data is encoded the same way (on-the-fly type, not fixed one)

2. Recommendation:

Users should be aware of that situation, when CMA reforecast encoding is mixed until the fix is completed for the  whole period. The affected reforecast data (2019-11-11....2020-06-22) can be re-downloaded if needed to have consistent encoding once the fix is finished. A simple fix can be applied also on user's side on already downloaded affected data. Please contact us for more details if needed.
