QC Overview • Tally variables & files • cf-checker • Time coordinate continuity • Temporal min/max/mean • Time-space cross-sections
Fixing errors • Metadata errors: fix • Data gaps: fill with missing_value • Bad values: replace with missing_value • More serious errors: contact modelers
Derived Data Products • Derived variables: tools on website • Temporal averages & climatologies • Regridded to 0.5-degree lat/lon grid • Online GIS access via databasin.org • New gridded daily obs: MICA
Bukovsky Regions • Descriptions • Maps • Mask Files http://www.narccap.ucar.edu/contrib/bukovsky/index.html
Citation & Contributions • Data Citation: http://www.narccap.ucar.edu/about/citation.html • Submit papers, presentations: http://www.narccap.ucar.edu/cgi/submit-paper.pl • Sharing software: http://www.narccap.ucar.edu/contrib/tools/https://wiki.ucar.edu/display/narccaptopics/Tools • DOI for the dataset: in progress
