Tropical Taux meridional RMSE

Description:

Computes the meridional root mean square error (RMSE) of tropical Pacific climatological (time and zonal average) Taux between model and observations

Reference observations:

ERA-Interim, Tropflux

Region:

equatorial Pacific Latitude Extended

Regridding:

model regridded toward observational grid (using cdms esmf linear method)

Steps (computation):

• detrending (if applicable)
• temporal average
• regridding (if applicable)
• zonal average
• RMSE computation

Time frequency:

monthly

Units:

10**-3 N/m²

Variable name:

zonal wind stress (Taux)

Example:
