Newell's NMC Northern Hemisphere Stratospheric Analyses, weekly 1972Jan-1973Jun

This dataset contains analyses of geopotential height and temperature at the 100mb, 10mb, 5mb, and 2mb stratospheric levels over the Northern Hemisphere. The data are on a latitude/longitude grid with a 10-degree resolution. The analyses were produced by the National Meterological Center (NMC) from available radiosonde and rocketsonde data, and they are available at weekly intervals from January 1972 through June 1973.
