The pentad files: godas.P.20170902.grb godas.P.20170907.grb godas.P.20170912.grb were recreated on 27Sep2017 to correct a bias in the western tropical Atlantic. The bias was caused by an analysis overcorrection in response to a sudden and significant increase in the number of ocean profile observations near Hurricane Irma. The bias was corrected by rerunning the daily analyses for the affected dates with additional data thinning in the pre-processing step. Questions?
