The list of variable names, long_name and standard_name attributes has been removed from the specs to avoid duplication and inconsistencies. The current list will always be in the "Output Table".

NOTE that there was a typo in the variable name for frozen soil water: It is called mfrso and not mrfso. This was correct in the Output Table.

Dear users,

There is an ongoing discussion and no consensus in the CORDEX community about the amount of quality check and compliance requirements, which are necessary before data sets can be published. My personal interpretation based on previous experience has been that it would be useful to publish the data, which other groups have sent to me, as early as possible: To enable the data to be used and to let the users find errors in the data, which can then be corrected. I therefore made the data on http://cordexesg.dmi.dk available as woon as the web interface was working. As you have seen on the front page of the data server, all data were published explicitly without any QC and guarantees, though with WCRP and CORDEX logos on the front page.

I have been asked to wait for an agreement on the criteria. Therefore http://cordexesg.dmi.dk will remain closed until further notice here. Modeling groups are still welcome to send me their data, which will then be published when the time comes.

Best regards, Ole
