Climate Forecast System Reanalysis (1979 - 2009)
NOAA's Climate Forecast System Reanalysis (CFSR) is a 30-year, coupled ocean-atmosphere-land surface analysis created by the National Weather Service National Centers for Environmental Prediction (NCEP). The dataset provided here represents the ocean component of the CFSR, based on the the MOM4 ocean model with the Global Ocean Data Analysis System. The complete atmosphere and ocean dataset is available through the National Climatic Data Center NOMADS site. More information on CFSR and its output is contained in the metadata and on the NCEP website.
