NCEP Climate Forecast System Version 2 (CFSv2) Monthly Products
Listed in National Center for Atmospheric Research
The National Centers for Environmental Prediction (NCEP) Climate Forecast System (CFS) is initialized four times per day (0000, 0600, 1200, and 1800 UTC).
Description
NCEP upgraded their operational CFS to version 2 on March 30, 2011. This is the same model that was used to create the NCEP Climate Forecast System Reanalysis (CFSR).
CFSv2 monthly atmospheric, oceanic and land surface output products are available at 0.3, 0.5, 1.0, 1.9, and 2.5 degree horizontal resolutions as 6-hourly diurnal monthly means (0000, 0600, 1200, and 1800 UTC) and regular full monthly means. For more information about CFS, please see cfs.ncep.noaa.gov/ [cfs.ncep.noaa.gov/].
