IntroductionThis page presents a table of variables that can be found in the HadRM3-PPE-UK dataset. This table has been derived from the NetCDF version of the dataset that was generated from the PP-format version originally provided by the Met Office Hadley Centre.
Note: The following table excludes the variable "SOIL MOISTURE CONTENT" (Stash code: m1s8i208) which is present in the PP-format data but is not recommended for usage due to it being incorrectly diagnosed. Please use "SOIL MOISTURE CONTENT IN A LAYER" (Stash code: m1s8i223 and NetCDF Id: mrsos) instead.
