Due to the current gap in continued funding from the U.S. National Science Foundation (NSF), the NSF Unidata Program Center has temporarily paused most operations. See NSF Unidata Pause in Most Operations for details.
Parties who might be interested in ECMWF Reanalysis-15 data in netCDF format,The NOAA-CIRES Climate Diagnostics Center (CDC), has been permitted to distribute the portion of the ERA-15 data set that we had converted to netCDF format. This includes both pressure-level and surface data, all on a 2.5 degree grid. It is only available through our web-based plotting and subsetting pages, due to ECMWF's requirement of a positive checkoff on their terms prior to the data being made available. Thus, after a subset is selected, a temporary netCDF file is constructed in a directory that is periodically purged, and that file is available for anonymous FTP. The documenting web page, with links to the plotting/subsetting page, is at: http://www.cdc.noaa.gov/cdc/data.ecmwf.reanalysis-15.html
There are two FAQ answers ("Why do I get a blank page when I request a subset?" and "What goes into the plot (from the subset and plot web page) when I request many levels and many timesteps?") that are relevant to obtaining data from us in this manner: http://www.cdc.noaa.gov/PublicData/faq.html
