Hi!
I want to download the variable "Mean temperature tendency due to parametrisations (paramld: 235005)" in model levels, which is described in the Table13 (ERA5: data documentation#Table13), but I find that it cannot be downloaded through the following code:
#!/usr/bin/env python
import cdsapi
c = cdsapi.Client()
c.retrieve('reanalysis-era5-complete', {
'date' : '2013-01-01',
'levelist': '1/10/100/137',
'levtype' : 'ml',
'param' : '235005',
'stream' : 'oper',
'time' : '00/to/23/by/6',
'type' : 'an',
'area' : '80/-50/-25/0',
'grid' : '1.0/1.0',
'format' : 'netcdf',
}, 'file.nc')
What puzzles me is when I change the 'param' to some other paramld, such as 130 (i.e. Temperature), there will be no error messages and the download is successful.
But as soon as I change to the paramld in Table13, it can't download normally with reporting "ERROR Message: the request you have submitted is not valid".
Have anyone met such a situation? How can I fix this problem?

Hi,
Try with 'type' : 'fc',
This parameter is only available in forecast (as indicated in table 13 of ERA5: data documentation). You might also find this page useful: ERA5 terminology: analysis and forecast; time and steps; instantaneous and accumulated and mean rates and min/max parameters
Hope this helps!
