ArcticRIMS: 2m Air Temperature From ERA-40 Re-Analysis , Aggregated by Administrative Regions
Listed in National Center for Atmospheric Research
This data set provides estimates of daily mean two meter air temperature from the European Center for Medium Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF) ERA-40 Reanalysis (ECMWF 2002).
Description
Data cover the period 1 January 1979 to 31 August 2002. Data were obtained from the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR) Data Support Section, dataset ds117.0 ().
Two meter temperatures are archived as 6 hour mean values. Daily means were computed from these values. Data were regridded from the native N80 (roughly 1 degree resolution) reduced Gaussian grid to the Equal-Area Scalable Earth (EASE) 25km grid using a bilinear interpolation scheme.

This scheme is described in ECMWF [2003]. The ERA-40 system assimilates available surface temperature observations. Fields should therefore be superior to those from the National Centers for Environmental Prediction/National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCEP/NCAR) Equal-Area Scalable Earth Grid (EASE-Grid) re-analysis, in which there is no assimilation of surface temperature data.
The data is presented in 24 sub-datasets of different spatial and temporal aggregations.
