NCEP Stratospheric Analyses, daily 1981Jun-1997Mar

The Global Stratospheric Analyses are provided on a pair of 65x65 polar grids. These were operationally prepared by NCEP daily, at 12Z.

The analyses are available on 8 mandatory levels from 70mb to 0.4mb. Parameters include pressure, geopotential height, temperature, and total column ozone.
