Brief description
ACCESS-A is an archive of surface heat flux components (latent, longwave, sensible, and shortwave), surface air temperature, cloud cover, precipitation, and wind velocities surface wind velocities and mean sea-level pressure produced operationally by the Bureau of Meteorology. ACCESS-A is a regional configuration (-A denotes Australia; http://www.bom.gov.au/australia/charts/about/about_access.shtml) of ACCESS-G an atmospheric model based on the Unified Model, developed by the UKMet Office (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unified_Model).This model differs from the ACCESS Surface 37.5km, with an improvement to the model grid spacing from 0.375o to 0.11o (approximately 12km).
This is purely a description of the forcing dataset used within the MARine Virtual Laboratory (MARVL).
