ERA5 monthly data on single levels

Here we propose a subset of ERA5 data for world atmospheric, ocean-wave and land surface quantities called ERA5 monthly means data on single levels. The data are available from 1940 until the last closed month and updated monthly and are regridded to a regular lat-lon grid of 0.25 degrees.

They are presented as a zarr archive optimised for time analysis.
