ERA5 daily

ERA5 daily#

ERA5 is a climate reanalysis dataset, covering the period 1950 to present. This dataset includes 2d and 3d common variables in daily frequency. The data was also remaped from 0.25 degree to 1 degree.

Variables

2D:

  • 2t (2 metre temperature, K)

  • mer (Mean evaporation rate, kg m**-2 s**-1)

  • msl (Mean sea level pressure, Pa)

  • mslhf (Mean surface latent heat flux, W m**-2)

  • msshf (Mean surface sensible heat flux, W m**-2)

  • mtpr (Mean total precipitation rate, kg m**-2 s**-1)

  • mvimd (Mean vertically integrated moisture divergence, kg m**-2 s**-1)

  • viwve (Vertical integral of eastward water vapour flux, kg m**-1 s**-1)

  • viwvn (Vertical integral of northward water vapour flux, kg m**-1 s**-1)

  • vo (Vorticity (relative), s**-1)

  • tp (Total precipitation, m)

3D:

  • q (Specific humidity, kg kg**-1)

  • t (Temperature, K)

  • u (U component of wind, m s**-1)

  • v (V component of wind, m s**-1)

  • w (Vertical velocity, Pa s**-1)

  • z (Geopotential, m2 s-2)

In 22 pressure levels (10,20,30,50,70,100,150,175,200,225,250,300,400,500,600,700,800,850,900,925,950,1000hPa)
