Abstract
The Climate and Environmental data Retrieval and Archive system, the CERA system, is under development and partly in operation at the German Climate Computing Centre (DKRZ) in order to organize the information about and the handling of mainly climate model data. The CERA system is conceived to make it possible to handle data of the order of some hundreds of terabytes. It includes international description standards of climate and environmental data in order to maintain adaptability. The CERA system allows to retrieve and to manipulate the datasets and the information about them, the metadata, to analyse the datasets scientifically, and to visualize them and the analyses. It is planed to put the CERA system into fully operation by the end of the year 1996.
