ERA5 reanalysis ARL files

Post by atmosphericjo »

Does any one have any global ERA5 reanalysis data converted to ARL weekly or monthly files to share?

Or is there somewhere I can download them ready for use with hysplit?

After it taking several days to try to download 1 month, I ran out of space after downloading half a month. I noticed the converted ARL files are much smaller, so I would need to clear a lot less space. I eventually need at least a full year (any year between 2016 to 2021), so just wanted to ask if anyone would be willing to share their converted files :)

Do you need global coverage?
Also you can try just downloading one day and converting that then erasing the grib files as you go.

Thanks for your suggestion, I think I will do that if that's the only option.

I only need the northern hemisphere actually but thought it would be easier to find global files.
