Variability of Iberian upwelling implied by ERA-40 and ERA-Interim reanalyses
Tellus A: Dynamic Meteorology and Oceanography, 2013 The Regional Ocean Modeling System ocean model is used to simulate the decadal evolution of the regional waters in offshore Iberia in response to atmospheric fields given by ECMWF ERA-40 (1961–2001) and ERA-Interim (1989–2008) reanalyses. The simulated sea surface temperature (SST) fields are verified against satellite AVHRR SST, and they

Comparison of river basin hydrometeorology in ERA‐Interim and ERA‐40 reanalyses with observations [PDF]
Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, 2009 The changes between the ERA‐40 and ERA‐Interim in the seasonal cycle of primarily temperature, precipitation and evaporation, the surface radiation budget, and the cloud fields are evaluated over three river basins, the Amazon, Mississippi, and Mackenzie, for the period 1990–2001, using a variety of surface observational data sets and the International

Inter-comparison of stratospheric mean-meridional circulation and eddy mixing among six reanalysis data sets [PDF]
Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2016 The stratospheric mean-meridional circulation (MMC) and eddy mixing are compared among six meteorological reanalysis data sets: NCEP-NCAR, NCEP-CFSR, ERA-40, ERA-Interim, JRA-25, and JRA-55 for the period 1979–2012.

Technical Note: A simple procedure for removing temporal discontinuities in ERA-Interim upper stratospheric temperatures for use in nudged chemistry-climate model simulations [PDF]
Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2014 This note describes a simple procedure for removing unphysical temporal discontinuities in ERA-Interim upper stratospheric global mean temperatures in March 1985 and August 1998 that have arisen due to changes in satellite radiance data used in the ...

Characterizing ERA-interim and ERA5 surface wind biases using ASCAT [PDF]
Ocean Science, 2019 Abstract. This paper analyses the differences between ERA-Interim and ERA5 surface winds fields relative to ASCAT ocean vector wind observations, after adjustment for the effects of atmospheric stability and density, using stress equivalent winds (U10S), and air-sea relative motion using ocean current velocities.

Climate and Vegetation: An ERA-Interim and GIMMS NDVI Analysis
Journal of Climate, 2014 To complement geographical presentation of remote sensing vegetation information, the authors apply Budyko’s physical state space diagram to analyze functional climate relations. As an example, the authors use Interim ECMWF Re-Analysis (ERA-Interim) global weather data to provide the statistics (1982–2006) of climate states in a two-dimensional state ...
