NOAA Climate Forecast System (CFS)

agriculture climate meteorological weather

Description

The Climate Forecast System (CFS) is a model representing the global interaction between Earth's oceans, land, and atmosphere. Produced by several dozen scientists under guidance from the National Centers for Environmental Prediction (NCEP), this model offers hourly data with a horizontal resolution down to one-half of a degree (approximately 56 km) around Earth for many variables. CFS uses the latest scientific approaches for taking in, or assimilating, observations from data sources including surface observations, upper air balloon observations, aircraft observations, and satellite observations.
Please note that the data in this bucket are the CFSv2 Operational Forecasts. To obtain other CFSv2 products such as the Operational Analysis, please visit our website.
