An initial master list of all TORUS international datasets (with links) has been compiled to provide easy access to all operational and research TORUS datasets. This list will form the TORUS Field Data Archive at NCAR Earth Observing Laboratory where datasets are grouped and sorted by category (i.e., radar, satellite, etc.) and platform. Please review this list to verify that your dataset(s) are properly named, with the appropriate authors identified. Email any corrections, additions, or deletions directly to loehrer@ucar.edu. If you already have your datasets available on-line elsewhere, please email the link(s) or FTP access information.

To submit your dataset(s) and documentation to the TORUS Field Data Archive, see the FTP instructions below. For users without Internet access, ftp access, or if your dataset(s) are too large to FTP, please contact loehrer@ucar.edu to discuss submission options. If you have a large number of files to FTP, it can ease the transfer if you tar or zip your files by day or what makes sense for your dataset.

It is critical that submitted datasets are accompanied by sufficient documentation. Each dataset MUST be accompanied by a Readme file that meets the Data Set Documentation Requirements. 

Data Submission FTP Instructions for the TORUS Field Data Archive at NCAR/EOL:

    FTP:   ftp.eol.ucar.edu
    Login:    torus  
    Password:    contact Scot Loehrer (loehrer@ucar.edu)
    
It is very important to send an email to loehrer@ucar.edu once your file(s) have been FTPed with the following information for your dataset(s):

1. Dataset Title
2. A summary of the files transferred so we can verify full transfer.
3. Are the data considered to be in a preliminary (not publication ready) or final (publication ready, can still be updated later if needed) state?

All datasets in "Final" form will be given a DOI (Digital Object Identifier) unless otherwise requested. Datasets in "Preliminary" form are not given a DOI unless specifically requested.

Thank you for providing data to the TORUS Field Data Archive at NCAR/EOL. Feel free to contact us with any questions or issues.
