Abstract:

Climatologies for January and July were created for several levels and variables for the tropics and mid-latitudes from analyzed maps. Data from 1961 to 1980 were used to create the 2.5-degree resolution gridded climatologies.

300 mbar 200 mbar 150 mbar 100 mbar
Temporal Frequencies:
Monthly Climatology

Citation counts are compiled through information provided by publicly-accessible APIs according to the guidelines developed through the https://makedatacount.org/ project. If journals do not provide citation information to these publicly-accessible services, then this citation information will not be included in RDA citation counts. Additionally citations that include dataset DOIs are the only types included in these counts, so legacy citations without DOIs, references found in publication acknowledgements, or references to a related publication that describes a dataset will not be included in these counts.
