The forecast data are from the coupled ocean-atmosphere model of the Centre National de Recherches Meteorologiques (CNRM) of Meteo France and were generated as part of the "Development of a European Multimodel Ensemble System for Seasonal to Interannual Prediction (DEMETER)" project (Palmer et al. 2004). Note that also the examples presented in the 2AFC paper by Mason and Weigel (2009) are based on these data.
