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.
