This is the ERA5 System for Classification of Low-Pressure Systems (SyCLoPS) dataset version 6. Details of SyCLoPS algorithms are described in the paper titled The System for Classification of Low-Pressure Systems (SyCLoPS): An All-in-One Objective Framework for Large-scale Data sets published on J. Geophys. Res. Atm.: [https://doi.org/10.1029/2024JD041287]
\nImportant: The most up-to-date SyCLoPS codes are now kept on GitHub: [https://github.com/yepkids/SyCLoPS]
*Updates on GitHub: SyCLoPS can now run entirely in Python. See the GitHub README page for details.*

\nMajor updates and bug fixes in this version:
\nThe following files can be obtained from version 4:
\nPlease contact Yushan Han (yshhan@ucdavis.edu) if you have questions about the SyCLoPS framework. Please contact Paul Ullrich (paullrich@ucdavis.edu) if you have any questions about the TE software.
\nSee below for a table of atmospheric variables required for SyCLoPS and a flowchart of the classification process. See the SyCLoPS manual for more details.
