This dataset contains model data for SNAPSI experiment 'nudged-full' produced by the seasonal prediction research team at Météo-France. It is generated with the coupled climate model CNRM-CM 6.1.

The SNAPSI project is a model intercomparison project to study the role of the stratosphere in subseasonal forecasts following stratospheric sudden warmings and the representation of stratosphere-troposphere coupling in subseasonal forecast models.

The nudged-full experiment is a set of retrospective, 45-day, 50-member ensemble forecasts. Following the initial date, stratospheric temperatures and horizontal winds are nudged towards the observed time-evolving state. The forecasts are initialized on the date indicated by the sub-experiment id; for instance, the sub-experiment 's20180125' is initialized on 25 January 2018. The ocean, sea-ice, land-surface and ozone are all initialized and run prognostically.
