European Reanalysis of Global Climate Observations
 
 
Products

The ERA-CLIM project is all about the production of global climate data sets (observations, model data, reanalyses, metadata) and development of robust data access facilities (Reanalysis Data Server, Observation Feedback Archive) for users of the data. Most of these products and facilities will become available during the final year of the project, in 2013.
