CDAS_clone_temporary contains the CDAS look alike files created using CORe reanalysis. As of 7/2024, CORe is not operational. We propose for CORe to replace CDAS. This dataset will provide data so that the public can comment about the proposal. Assuming the proposal is sucessful, this data set will be maintained until (1) CORe is operational and (2) a public CORe archive site is available. This will allow people to use transition to the operational CORe before an archive site is available. Of course, they will have to transition to the final CORe datasets. 1_day_sample contains the (proposed) operational output that will be long-term archived. This is the output for a single day. Monthly means of the ensemble-mean pgb and flux files will be generated by a non-operational process. Operational output is distributed by NCEP from https://nomads.ncep.noaa.gov and usually contains about the last 7 days of results. Access to longer time series will depend on the public archives. For questions and comments on the files, send them to wesley.ebisuzaki@noaa.gov and leigh.zhang@noaa.gov. For comments about the the proposal to replace CDAS by CORe, send them to wanqui.wang@noaa.gov.
