The relation between these models and the numbers of the SRNWP PEPS ensemble is anonymous.
The SRNWP-PEPS generates probability forecasts by interpreting the overlapping areas of the single forecasts as members of a local ensemble. Due to the different domains of the deterministic models the size of the ensemble depends on location. Hence the quality of the forecasted probability distributions varies over the PEPS domain.
THE PLEV data set could not be provided for PEPS.
