Retrieve wind components for tomorrow at 12:00 and 18:00 from yesterday's 12Z forecast at all 91 model level

• • retrieve wind components for tomorrow at 12:00 and 18:00 from yesterday's 12Z forecast at all 91 model levels (solution)
  • retrieve geopotential and surface pressure for yesterday's analysis cycles (00,06,12,18) (solution)
• Repeat the previous retrieves for the same month but in 1994. (solution)
• More retrieves
  • retrieve surface pressure and surface thermal radiation at every 12-hour timestep for the 12Z forecast from two days ago (solution)
  • retrieve the operational monthly mean model level temperature (all levels) from the 06:00 analysis for February 1997 (solution)
• Postprocessing
  • retrieve the 1000,500 and 300 hPa temperatures for tomorrow at noon from the forecast of two days ago on an N48 Gaussian Grid (solution)
  • extract the same on a latitude/longitude grid, 1.5 by 1.5 degrees (solution)
  • extract Europe in the same way as in the previous retrieval. Compare the size of the resulting file with the previous one. (solution)
• Observations
  • retrieve all the sea surface observations for the 4th of May 1996 (solution)
• Ensemble forecasts
  • retrieve the surface temperature fields of the first 10 members of yesterday's ensemble prediction (type: perturbed forecast) for the next 3 days at noon. (solution)
  • do the same for the control forecast (solution)
