NCAR Data Assimilation Research Section

Datasets that are useful to test/exercise DART: the Data Assimilation Research Testbed.

The code distribution was getting 'cluttered' with datasets, boundary conditions, intial conditions, ... large files that were not necessarily interesting to all people who downloaded the DART code. Worse, subversion makes a local hidden copy of the original repository contents, so the penalty for being large is doubled. It just made sense to make all the large files available on as 'as-needed' basis.

Please feel free to offer constructive criticism or suggestions. My email is at the bottom of the page -- Tim

Please be patient as I make time to populate this directory. (yes, 'make', all my 'found' time is taken ...)
