Is there a summary of the NCEP model used for NCEP/NCAR Reanalysis project?
[8/31/1998] It can be found at model_summary. • When using gribmap of GrADS to make *.idx file, it failed. How to make it work?[8/13/1998] This does happen, for example, the grb2d92070100 file. This is because there is a trailing bad GRIB record which is not part of the grb2d data. To fix the data file, you can use wgrib to filter out the trailing bad record. To do this, enter `wgrib -d all -grib -o grb2d92070100.fix grb2d92070100′ assuming wgrib is installed. The 1992JUL-NOV grb2d vsns are fixed as of Oct 17, 2000. There is no change of the data, but the tailing extra incomplete GRIB records are removed. • Is there any information on the vertical structure of liquid water content (clouds and rain drops) available from Reanalysis?[6/9/98] Liquid water is not carried as a distinct variable in Reanalysis. Specific humidity, relative humidity, and total column precipitable water are the primary moisture variables in the atmosphere. (Kanamitsu) • What is the reason to rerun the 1997MAR-DEC
