World Data Center for Climate Data—Support for the CEOP Project in Terms of Model Output

The World Data Center for Climate (WDC-Climate) is hosted at the Max Planck Institute for Meteorology (MPI-M) in Hamburg, Germany. WDC-Climate stores global and regional model output for the CEOP project, and raw model output is available in a number of different data structures. This model output is currently being restructured into a more homogenous form. This paper provides an overview of the CEOP model output and its overall data structure at WDC-Climate, as well as the different ways that this output can be accessed.
