Startdump request

[dsergeev]

Hi,

Could you please provide me with start dumps for the following dates?

2003-12-04 12:00 UTC
2006-01-28 12:00 UTC
2006-10-31 12:00 UTC
2007-04-05 00:00 UTC
2009-02-04 00:00 UTC
2009-04-01 00:00 UTC
2010-03-13 12:00 UTC
2010-10-18 12:00 UTC

I need them to run the Nesting Suite on MONSooN.

Many thanks,
Denis

Hi Denis,

I got most of these, or close enough, except for the 2003. They are now available on new Monsoon in /projects/nexcs-n02/frmy/data_reqs. Please copy these to your own work space as soon as possible.

As you go further back in time, there is less in the database, so only 06Z is availabled. There is nothing before Jan 2006.

I can get a 20031204 12Z dump from ECMWF if that would be useful?

Hi Willie,

Thanks a lot. I've copied the files.

I think I will run the other cases first, and if really needed I will ask again for the 20031204 dump.

Sorry for a stupid question, but I just wanted to double check: if I use start dumps ending with *06.T+3 and *06.T+6, what INITIAL_CYCLE_POINT should be? E.g., for 20070404_qwqu06.T+6 should it be 20070404T0600Z or 20070404T1200Z?

Denis,

That'd be 0900Z and 1200Z.
