Title

S2S MPAS Hindcasts, Zarr Subset

Alternative title(s)

d555001

Abstract

This dataset contains a Zarr subset of four variables for subseasonal-to-seasonal (S2S) hindcasts with MPAS that were carried out as a part of the ESPAT and with community analysis in mind. These forecasts consist of 45-day long runs initialized every Monday from 1999 to 2023, 11 ensemble members. The S2S hindcasts consist of four different resolutions of 23 years worth of MPAS hindcasts. Resolutions are all global. 120km and 60km are uniform and there are also two refined meshes of 60-15km and 60-4km. Hindcasts are initialized from the ERA5 DA ensemble.
