GATE Analyses by Ooyama, Chu and Esbensen, 1974Aug-Sep

These volumes contain the Ooyama, Esbensen and Chu analysis of upper air soundings taken during Phase III of GATE. The analyzed data has been interpolated to a regular grid using a statistical interpolation technique developed by Ooyama (1987: Mon. Wea. Rev., v.115, pp.2479-2506). The method was applied to the wind data by KV Ooyama and J-H Chu, and to the temperature and relative humidity data by SK Esbensen. A technical report on the temperature and relative humidity analysis is available from SK Esbensen .
