Randel's Global Gridded Spectral Height and Temperature Fields

This dataset contains once-daily global gridded geopotential height and temperature at levels from 1000mb up to 1mb for the period from April 1979 to May 1994. Bill Randel of NCAR interpolated bad and missing data in the grids of ds067.1 and stored the new data as zonal Fourier coefficients on an approximate 4.5 degree latitude/longitude grid (consistent with R15 spectral resolution). Further information can be found in NCAR Technical Note 366, which is available from the UCAR publications office at (303) 497-8601.
