Atmospheric Initial and Boundary Conditions
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/61.001

Summary
This dataset contains atmospheric initial and boundary conditions for Arctic
Regional Climate Model Intercomparison Project (ARCMIP) in HDF format. The
data include seven parameters (q, temp, u, v, z, sfcz, and sfcp) on the ECMWF
Grid. The data are provided in 13 monthly files covering the complete dataset
time period regardless of the user's Spatial Search Criteria selection.
