Objectives The objective of this task is to develop the CARBONES information package and the CARBONES portal giving access interface and information to the Climate Users at the appropriate level. Based on the CCDAS system developed and validated in WP400, the generation of 30 year reanalyses will be performed at the different steps of the project, and verification tests will be implemented. A tailored, user-friendly interface will be developed, allowing climate modellers, other science communities, local or regional communities and the general public to understand and easily visualize the living carbon cycle over the past 20-30 years. The users of the CARBONES system will use the system via a web site in which spatial data will be displayed on a Googlemaps display or similar. Finally, all the necessary material will be prepared for the dissemination of the CARBONES product and services to the Climate modellers during the project for their use and evaluation of the CARBONES information package. This task will also prepare the dissemination of CARBONES product and services to other identified communities of users, during and beyond the project. WP500 – Dataset production and visualisation
