U.S. Navy FNOC Southern Hemisphere Tropospheric Analyses, daily 1974Aug-1993Dec
Prepared by Fleet Numerical Oceanographic Center in Monterey California.
Unless you have a special interest in this dataset, DSS recommends that you
use one of our reanalysis datasets, such as ds090.0. That's because those are
based on a more complete collection of observations, improved analysis methods,
and are provided in a common modern format (GRIB).
