Abstract

This dataset is a collection of various NCEP GFS data used by NCAR's researchers. It consists of periods of GFS spectral coefficients (in binary format) and flux terms (in GRIB format), as well as their transformed, gridded NetCDF files of various spatial resolutions, T382, T254, T170 and T62. All data files are stored on HPSS. There is no attempt to recover, reconstruct missing data. All products are provided as is.
