ECMWF File Names Have Changed

Post by miriam »

I am trying to convert ECMWF Interim, Daily files to ARL format. From this site:

http://apps.ecmwf.int/datasets/data/int ... vtype=sfc/

The variables that are asked for in the GUI (geop, temp, uvel, vvel, etc.) are not the same as those listed on the ECMWF website, as it was updated within the past year. Can someone please give me a list of the files that I will need to be download from the new website? I am assuming most of them just go by a different name now.

Thanks,
Miriam

I don't see any change in the names of the variables. You need to download the pressure level data.

I did not initially see the separate tabs for "Surface" and "Pressure Levels". That was the issue.

Thanks,
