Lineage statement | Input data is the ECMWF ERA-Interim archive MARS retrieval performed using the script retrieve_nwp_grib_data.py, and u10s NetCDF products generated using the script create_u10s_netcdf_files.py. Both are parth of the myocean mercurial repository. The actual revision used is: 283:d3e3c451c4cd. The actual grib to netcdf conversion was done by the convert_grib_to_netcdf.py python module, part of the genscat software, svn revision r12339 |
Purpose | stress-equivalent winds can be used to directly compare with scatterometer winds or to generate ocean surface wind stress. |
Supplemental information | note that stress equivalent model and scatterometer winds (u10s) are also available from the copernicus portal where the KNMI L3 scatterometer products may be obtained. See: http://marine.copernicus.eu/ |
