ECMWF ERA-40: 6-hourly monthly average reduced N80 Gaussian gridded surface level analysis data (ggas)

This dataset contains 6-hourly monthly average, N80 Gaussian gridded, surface level, analysis time step parameters from the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF) Re-Analysis (ERA) 40 program from August 1958 to December 2001. ERA-40 followed on from the ERA-15 re-analysis project. Access limited to UK based academic researchers only. These data are GRIB formatted.
