*Suggested variables:**
*
Atmospheric variables 2D:
2 meter air temperature
10m U,V winds
precipitation
snow
surf. heat fluxes (SW,LW, latent,sensible)

Ocean 2D variables
sea surface temperature
sea surface salinity
sea ice cover

Ocean 3D variables
water temperature
water salinity

needed for calculation of mixed layer depth, thermocline depth and intensity, heat content etc
