Cascade: Africa-12km xfixa model run data
Cascade was a NERC funded consortium project to study organized convection and scale interactions in the tropical atmosphere using large domain cloud system resolving model simulations. This dataset contains data from the xfixa simulation which ran using the Met Office Unified Model (UM) at 12km horizontal resolution over the domain 20W-20E, 5S-28N which encompasses the west african monsoon. Cascade Africa simulations are used to study African Easterly Waves.
This dataset contains 4km Africa model measurements from xfixa run.

- Statement
- Data were generated using the Met Office Unified Model (UM) at 12km horizontal resolution over the domain 20W-20E, 5S-28N. Cascade data has been converted to CF-netCDF by the cascade team using one of two tools: UKMOIDL or xconv, then passed on to the BADC for archiving.
