An evaluation of ERA5 precipitation for climate monitoring [PDF]
Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, 2022 AbstractA key aim of climate monitoring is to place the current conditions of climate variables, such as surface air temperature and precipitation, in their historical context. In Europe, a leading provider of this information is the Copernicus Climate Change Service (C3S), which is implemented by the European Centre for Medium‐Range Weather Forecasts (

An Assessment of ERA5 Reanalysis for Antarctic Near-Surface Air Temperature
Atmosphere, 2021 The European Center for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF) released its latest reanalysis dataset named ERA5 in 2017. To assess the performance of ERA5 in Antarctica, we compare the near-surface temperature data from ERA5 and ERA-Interim with the ...

Near-Surface Biases in ERA5 Over the Canadian Prairies [PDF]
Frontiers in Environmental Science, 2019 We quantify the biases in the diurnal cycle of air temperature in ERA5, using hourly climate station data for four stations in Saskatchewan, Canada. Compared with ERA-Interim, the biases in ERA5 have been greatly reduced, and show no differences with ...

ERA5: The new champion of wind power modelling?
Renewable Energy, 2018 Abstract Output from meteorological reanalyses are used extensively in both academia and industry for modelling wind power. Recently, the first batch of the new ERA5 reanalysis was released. The main purpose of this paper is to compare the performance of ERA5 and MERRA-2 (a commonly used reanalysis today) in terms of modelling i) the aggregated wind ...

The ERA5 global reanalysis [PDF]
Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, 2020 Abstract Within the Copernicus Climate Change Service (C3S), ECMWF is producing the ERA5 reanalysis which, once completed, will embody a detailed record of the global atmosphere, land surface and ocean waves from 1950 onwards. This new reanalysis replaces the ERA‐Interim reanalysis (spanning 1979 onwards) which was started in 2006 ...

The ERA5 global reanalysis: Preliminary extension to 1950 [PDF]
Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, 2021 AbstractThe extension of the ERA5 reanalysis back to 1950 supplements the previously published segment covering 1979 to the present. It features the assimilation of additional conventional observations, as well as improved use of early satellite data. The number of observations assimilated increases from 53,000 per day in early 1950 to 570,000 per day ...

UV Index from ERA5 reanalysis. [PDF]
Sci RepExposure to ultraviolet (UV) radiation significantly impacts human health. Consequently, comprehensive UV climatological databases are of great interest. UV exposure is evaluated by weighting UV spectra with spectral functions that describe physiological responses at each wavelength.

Evaluating the Accuracy of Precipitation Products Over Utah, United States, Using the Google Earth Engine Platform [PDF]
Desert, 2023 Satellite-based precipitation missions can be used to estimate precipitation distribution, especially in areas where there are no rain gauging stations. Nevertheless, these products are still less used because of the lack of accuracy evaluation.

Assessment of Precipitation Obtained from Gridded Data Bases in Southern Baluchestan Basin [PDF]
محیط زیست و مهندسی آب, 2023 Precipitation is an important variable in hydrological studies. The high spatial and temporal variability of precipitation makes it difficult to monitor it with observations.
