- Assimilates surface temperature from stations. It is initialized and driven by ERA-Interim reanalysis and relies only on surface observations and no remote sensing observations, such as satellite. Temperature data is available as instantaneous predicted values at hourly time steps. Tmax and Tmin are not available from the forecast. They can be computed by users using the hourly near-surface air temperature. The RDRS version 2.1 is available for download on CaSPAr (https://caspar-data.ca/ )
