Plan

It was agreed to archive additional parameters coming from ocean part of the participating models in the S2S archive. 

The actual plan is:

• start getting  test data from the partners as soon as possible from September 2019
• start production archiving of the additional ocean parameters by the January 2020 latest

Progress status

The current status per provider. 

Instructions

Find the links to technical information how to encode your ocean data below.

The same naming convention should be used as for the current S2S production data.

 Basically the encoding and all technical detail should remain the same as up to now with the only exception being the higher required horizontal resolution, 1x1 degree,  of the ocean outputs.

Test samples

Provide full sample data from one run (all ocean parameters, steps, eps members..) of both real-time and hindcast outputs.
