OFES NCEP forced hindcast 0.1 deg global 3day

Full resolution (0.1 degree) OFES output, NCEP forcing

The OGCM For the Earth Simulator (OFES) is a global 0.1x0.1 degree model forced by NCEP winds. It was run with climatological forcing for 50 years, and this output is 3-day snapshots for a further integration with NCEP winds. This model is based on MOM-3.0.

If you use the OFES output, please acknowledge: "The OFES simulation was conducted on the Earth Simulator under the support of JAMSTEC." And please include these
