If you are planning to use the data on an NCAR computer, you can obtain the listing of the files containing the data from the file datasets/ds111.2/MASTER, via anonymous FTP to ncardata.ucar.edu. Or, use a WWW browser and open http://www.ucar.edu/dss/datasets/ds111.2.html This file is also on the Mass Store under the name /DSS/D/DS1112.

This manual covers the physical parameterization used in the model. We have recently received Research Manual 1, which describes the data assimilation, and Research Manual 2, which describes the adiabatic part of the forecast model. If you are interested in a specific procedure which may be described in one of these manuals, I may be able to copy just the relevant sections and send them to you. If you are interested in the entire manual, please let me know and I will have them duplicated. I will be receiving a list of the changes to the analysis system since 11 November 1993, the last change date listed in the current "Technical Attachment" document (dated 1994). If you would like a copy of this list, please let me know. If you don't have a copy of the Technical Attachment and would like one, let me know. All of these ECMWF documents are hardcopy, so please include your mailing address with any requests. ============================================================================ If you would like to be taken off this mailing list, please contact me. If you are interested in ordering any ECMWF/TOGA data, or any other data from NCAR's archives, please contact me. I can be reached at ilana@ncar.ucar.edu or by phone at (303)497-1214.
