Data Description
Climate Forecast System - Reanalysis (CFS-R) -
The Climate Forecast System (CFS) is a fully coupled, 32-km 64-layer gridded global model representing the interaction between the Earth's oceans, land and atmosphere developed by the NCEP Environmental Modeling Center (EMC) for global reanalysis and reforecast efforts. The system includes two components: 1) a Reanalysis of the atmosphere, ocean, sea ice, and land over the 31-year period (1979-2009), which will be used to provide consistent initial conditions for 2) a complete Reforecast of the CFS over the 28-year period (1982-2009).
