The raw format of this data is hosted in DKRZ under ''/pool/data/ERA5''. The 2D variables may belong to 2 different data types: ^data type ^ characteristics ^ meaning^ |''sf00''|surface vars| pure analysis (no forecast), only intensive data (e.g. temp). | |''sf12''|forecast & accumulated| forecast starting at 06:00, extensive data (e.g. precip). \\ //Instantaneous//: valid at the time indicated by time+step (e.g. 06:00 +1h i.e. at 07:00) \\ //Accumulated//: aggregation between step and step+1 (the steps are of 1 hour) | More info in https://confluence.ecmwf.int/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=85402030 Some variables may be found in more than one type, in these cases we set a default source (**bolded**), although that can be changed as per user request. The information contained in the table is the following one: ^column^meaning^ |XCES_VAR| variable name at XCES| |EC_VAR| original variable name from ECMWF, more info at

(accumulated), ''EX, EI'' (max., min.) \\ ''I'' variables go from 00-23 at each day. \\ ''A, EX, EI'' variables go from 01-00 at each day. \\ ''INV'' invariant variables, ''time_freq = fx''.|
