• Table shows the centres  providing data to this project together with the latest configuration of their systems.
  • Follow the links in the first column for specific model description.
  • S2S model outputs are stored in MARS on the common 1.5/1.5 regular lat-lon grid as per the data format specification here.
    • the only exception is  BoM (ammc) which has coarser resolution and is stored on its original model grid
    • additional ocean parameters are stored on the 1.0/1.0 regular lat-lon grid
