ERA-Interim is a global atmospheric reanalysis from 1979, continuously updated in real time.
The data assimilation system used to produce ERA-Interim is based on a 2006 release of the IFS (Cy31r2). The system includes a 4-dimensional variational analysis (4D-Var) with a 12-hour analysis window. The spatial resolution of the data set is approximately 80 km (T255 spectral) on 60 vertical levels from the surface up to 0.1 hPa.
ERA-Interim data can be downloaded from the ECMWF Public Datasets web interface or from MARS (class=ei, expver=1). For a detailed documentation of the ERA-Interim Archive see Berrisford et al. (2011
Public access to this dataset will be closed on June 1st, 2023. For more information and possible alternatives, please consult the dedicated page on Decommissioning of ECMWF Public Datasets service.
