ECMWF Re-analysis Basic level III global supplementary fields

This dataset contains the supplementary fields from the ECMWF 15 year reanalysis project. All fields are on a 2.5 degree latitude-longitude grid and are accumlations derived from forecast grids.

More recent reanalyses have been run by ECMWF and are available in the ERA-40 and the ERA-Interim datasets.
