Type:
analysis (for instantaneous parameters)
- forecast (for accumulated parameters)
- Products
- monthly mean of daily means (for instantaneous parameters)
- The monthly means of the instantaneous variables (2 m temperature and mean sea level pressure) are calculated from 6-hourly data (00, 06, 12, 18), as this is the minimum temporal frequency across all datasets.
- For precipitation rate, which is an accumulation divided by time step, all available time steps are used.
- monthly mean of daily accumulations
- monthly mean of daily means (for instantaneous parameters)
- Output times: depends on the model
| Parameter | type | units | paramId | short name | Long name (link to param-db) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Time-mean 2 metre temperature | an | K | 228004 | avg_2t | Time-mean 2 metre temperature |
| Time-mean mean sea level pressure | an | Pa | 235151 | avg_msl | Time-mean mean sea level pressure |
| Time-mean total precipitation rate | fc | kg m-2 s-1 | 235055 | avg_tprate | Time-mean total precipitation rate |
| Time-mean total precipitation* | fc | kg m-2 | 228228 | tp | Total precipitation |
*Exact meaning of that parameter is Monthly mean of daily total precipiation accumulations
