GEOS-5 Configuration for PIESA: Difference between revisions

The ''Integrated Earth System Analysis'' ('''IESA''') is a general framework for synthesizing information from earth-system models and observations, and turning them into products of various sorts, recognizing user needs, and making the information accessible and widely available. This requires the use of sophisticated models and assimilation systems, and their exploitation in prediction on multiple time scales, along with interactive data stewardship and management. The ''Preparatory IESA'' ('''PIESA''') project is a first attempt centered around the [http://gmao.gsfc.nasa.gov/research/merra/ Mordern Era Retrospective-analysis for Research and Applications] (MERRA) to provide historical global datasets including atmospheric aerosols, chemical constituents, as well as land and oceanic parameters. The initial target period is the satellite era (1979-present).
