1) Increased vertical resolution (Q2 2013). 
High resolution forecast and analysis: increase form 91 to 137 levels (top remains the same).
Technical test data is available in MARS.
After this it is not possible to convert from GRIB2 to GRIB1.
2) New terminology
Deterministic forecast --> High-resolution forecast - "HRES"
EPS --> Ensemble forecast - "ENS"


3) ECgate will change from a Unix to a Linux server.
4) Batch system on ECgate will change from LoadLeveler to SLURM.
Retrieval scripts must be changed accordingly.
Does note apply to the HPCF (c2a) so that retrieval scripts on the two systems will be different and need to be kept separate.
