Hi CMS,

While Simon is kindly investigating interpolation errors from ERA5 to my nested domain over the pole, I’d like to test nesting within the glm.

Can somebody please provide me with glm startdumps for December 2021? And as an aside - are these stored centrally on Archer or is this this still the best way to get my hands on startdumps?

Many thanks  
Ella

Hi Ella

We haven’t been a source of start dumps for many years - since MASS access through the JASMIN moose client was made available to all. See [Setting up your JASMIN account for access to MASS - JASMIN help docs](https://help.jasmin.ac.uk/article/230-setting-up-your-jasmin-account-for-access-to-mass) for how to get MASS access from JASMIN.

We can’t afford the space to store start dumps on ARCHER (with one or two exceptions for standard jobs.)
