Jenne's Monthly Northern and Southern Hemisphere Climatologies

A selected 15-year climatology of the Northern Hemisphere using the Navy Marine Atlas Series and 5-year mean grids summarized from daily grids from the National Climatic Center (NCC). The input data is from about January 1950 through December 1964.

A selected 17-year climatology of the Southern Hemisphere using the Navy Marine Atlas Series and monthly mean rawinsonde data from "climat temp" reports as published in NCC's "Monthly Climatic Data for the World". The input data is from about 1950 through about 1966.
