Dear ROM SAF data user



Issued : 2016-03-18 15:01 UTC



The ROM SAF is now releasing an update of the climate data products based on data from the US-Taiwanese satellite mission FORMOSAT-3/COSMIC. The monthly mean time series now covers the period from September 2006 to June 2015.



This ROM SAF climate data set (products GRM-17 to 21) consists of zonal monthly means of bending angle, refractivity, temperature, humidity, and geopotential height, on a 5 degree by 200 meter latitude-height grid. The monthly data are delivered as CF compliant netCDF files that also incorporates related data: data numbers, error estimates, and comparisons to the ECMWF operational model fields.



The data can also be viewed on the ROM SAF Climate Monitoring pages [http://www.romsaf.org/climate_monitoring/], which includes time series plots for the full length of the climate data set, as well as various quality indicators.



User documentation and access to the climate products are available at the Product Archive [http://www.romsaf.org/product_archive.php].



Kind regards

The ROM SAF Team
