Inquiry about GOFS 3.1-Global Analysis and Global Reanalysis data

[褚福硕]

Hi, Michael McDonald:

        Thank you for reading this inquiry letter. I'm a graduate student from Institute of Oceanology, Chinese Academy of Sciences, 

        Recently, we have downloaded GOFS 3.1-Analysis tempearature/salinity/velocity model data from 09/2018 to 04/2019, and we proceed to get a ten-year GOFS 3.1-Reanalysis from 2006-2015. 

        We want to get anomaly analysis data from 2018. The question is can this ten-year average GOFS 3.1-Reanalysis data as a model climatological data to calculate 2018 anomaly tempearature/salinity/velocity GOFS 3.1-Analysis data ?

We are anticipating hearing from you,

Best Wishes,

Fushuo Chu
