Reanalysis data sources

Source: R/sources_reanalysis.R
sources_reanalysis.Rd

Data sources providing data from global reanalysis models.

Usage

sources_reanalysis(name, formats, time_resolutions, ...)

Arguments

name

character vector: only return data sources with name or id matching these values

formats

character: for some sources, the format can be specified. See the list of sources above for details

time_resolutions

character: for some sources, the time resolution can be specified. See the list of sources above for details

...

: additional source-specific parameters. See the list of sources above for details

Value

a tibble with columns as specified by bb_source

Details

  • "NCEP-DOE Reanalysis 2": NCEP-DOE Reanalysis 2 is an improved version of the NCEP Reanalysis I model that fixed errors and updated paramterizations of of physical processes. Accepts time_resolution values of "6 hour", "day", and/or "month" (default). The 6-hourly data is the original output time resolution. Daily and monthly averages are calculated from the 6-hourly model output

  • "NCEP/NCAR Reanalysis 1": The NCEP/NCAR Reanalysis 1 project is using a state-of-the-art analysis/forecast system to perform data assimilation using past data from 1948 to the present. Only the monthly data are so far included here

  • "CCMP Wind Product V2": The Cross-Calibrated Multi-Platform (CCMP) gridded surface vector winds are produced using satellite, moored buoy, and model wind data, and are a Level-3 ocean vector wind analysis product. The V2 CCMP processing combines Version-7 RSS radiometer wind speeds, QuikSCAT and ASCAT scatterometer wind vectors, moored buoy wind data, and ERA-Interim model wind fields using a Variational Analysis Method (VAM) to produce four maps daily of 0.25 degree gridded vector winds

The returned tibble contains more information about each source.
