This is modified atmospheric reanalysis data derived from ERA5 (ECMWF) at 0.5x0.5 degree resolution and hourly time steps.


The data is generated by the preprocessing step of the moisture tracking model WAM2layers v3. Using this dataset gives users the possibility skip this data-intensive and time-consuming first step and immediately proceed with actual moisture tracking with WAM2layers v3 to determine moisture transport in the atmosphere.


Besides the actual preprocessed data, the data also contains the scripts that were used to download and process the original data.
