A New Method to Evaluate Reanalyses Using Synoptic Patterns: An Example Application in the Ross Sea/Ross Ice Shelf Region
Abstract We compare the consistency between eight reanalyses: CERA20C, ERA5, ERA‐Interim, ERA20C, NCEP‐DOE, MERRA2, JRA55, and 20CRV2c. This comparison uses daily surface winds near Antarctica to classify synoptic patterns using the self‐organizing map technique. The relative frequency of occurrence...
