TL;DR: In this paper, the quality of the Japanese 55-year reanalysis (JRA-55) was investigated by comparing it with other reanalyses and observational datasets, and the results indicated that JRA55 generally improved the representations of phenomena on a wide range of space-time scales, such as equatorial waves, and transient eddies in the storm track regions.
