The ECV inventory provides the foundation for the fulfillment of the three main objectives assigned to the Joint WGClimate. At the first meeting of the Joint Working Group in March 2014, the current status of the inventory will be reviewed in the three domains (land, ocean and atmosphere) and the actions needed to achieve "Version 1" status of the inventory will be identified.
First release of the ECV Inventory is complete for use by WGClimate members, although slightly delayed by one quarter when an issue identified the need to fix ECV/CDR pairs and establish version control. Web address: http://www.ecv-inventory.com . Public release is still TBD.
