Cyclones, jets and wave breaking in ERA-interim

DOI

The dataset contains detected cyclones, jet axes and Rossby wave breaking events in the ERA-interim dataset, each on a 0.5deg by 0.5deg grid. The detections are based on established algorithms.

[Cyclones] Algorithm: Wernli and Schwierz (2006), doi: 10.1175/JAS3766.1 . Implementation by: C. Spensberger.

[Jet axes] Algorithm: Spensberger et al. (2017), doi: 10.1175/mwr-d-16-0467.1 . Implementation by: C. Spensberger.

[Rossby wave breaking] Algorithm: Rivière (2009), doi: 10.1175/2008JAS2919.1 . Implementation of the Fortran version used here by: C. Michel.

All algorithms are included in dynlib. Documentation, code and a citation for dynlib version 1.1 is available under doi 10.5281/zenodo.4639623 , but the current development is available at https://git.app.uib.no/Clemens.Spensberger/dynlib .
