MARS - Meteorological Archival and Retrieval System
contains the meteorological forecast/analysis/re-analysis ECMWF data in GRIB format, observations in BUFR format and observations feedbacks in ODB format (ECMWF ad-hoc format).
Access to operational forecasts and analysis as well as observations require to have an account at ECMWF but all REANALYSES can be freely downloaded. The list of freely accessible dataset can be found here.

What is in MARS? - Data types and format
Retrieve small data sets from the web-MARS (online web-tool)
Browse the content of the MARS archive, create requests, check availability, retrieve small amounts of data.
Retrieve large data sets from MARS with ecmwfapi
Get your data where you need to run your simulation (local computer, abel, etc.).
Logging in and account settings If you have an account at ECMWF...
File systems and data structure at ECMWF - where to store and get data!
Overview of file systems/domains and quotas on the various domains.
Retrieve larger data sets from MARS on ECgate or HPCF
ECgate is the standard UNIX server, HPCF (High Performance Computing Facility) is the supercomputer.
