Zusammenfassung |
ERA-Interim, which has produced reanalyses starting in 1989,
is now running in near real time and so provides an ideal
opportunity to monitor the current climate. Currently, the ECMWF's
in house monitoring system includes 1D monthly mean time series
of various surface and upper air parameters, such as winds and
temperature, for various regions around the globe. There are also
time series for various circulation indices such as the NAO and
SOI and for the budgets of mass, moisture and energy. In addition,
there are monthly mean maps and zonal mean cross sections of
the basic parameters. The monitoring system is being expanded to
provide a more comprehensive set of products including, for example,
2D time series and measures of the storm-tracks, Hadley Circulation
and the stratospheric vortex. An appropriate subset of this system
is available on the public website and will be updated with the
latest products when possible. The aim of this presentation is
to provide examples of current products and discuss future
ones. |
