Abstract:

Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC) has produced a surface and precipitation reanalysis for North and Central America on a 10 km grid. For the current version (version 3.2), the ERA5 reanalysis from ECMWF was used as input to ECCC's global models, and the output was dynamically downscaled over North and Central America. More detailed information can be found on ECCC's website.

Citation counts are compiled through information provided by publicly-accessible APIs according to the guidelines developed through the https://makedatacount.org/ project. If journals do not provide citation information to these publicly-accessible services, then this citation information will not be included in GDEX citation counts. Additionally citations that include dataset DOIs are the only types included in these counts, so legacy citations without DOIs, references found in publication acknowledgements, or references to a related publication that describes a dataset will not be included in these counts.
