Hi,

Can someone please confirm exactly what the GALEON project data is?  I need to 
think out a possible demo scenario, and how CEOP data might fit into 
(complement) the existing data and add to a demo scenario.

I downloaded RUC.nc, strped.nc and sst.nc and did ncdump(s) on them to get the 
time and location coverage information:

sst.nc is 24 scenes, global coverage, from 15 days to 705 days, at 30 day in
tervals, starting at 2001-1-1.
lon 1:359:2
lat -79.5:89.5:1
time 15:705:30 (days, since 2001-1-1)
tos (in degrees K).

RUC.nc is basically over the continental US, various variables at 19 levels.  I 
couldn't understand the time range or interval.

Striped appears to be global, probably atmospheric temperature at pressure 
levels.  Perhaps at a single time.

Can you confirm and fill in my understanding of the data please - locations and 
time series?

Is there any other data?  Especially, is there any station data (time series 
data at a point)?

Thanks very much for your help.

Ben
