Abstract:

The weekly stratospheric analyses of geopotential height and temperature in this dataset were produced from available radiosonde and rocketsonde data for the 5, 2, and 0.4 millibar levels. Grids are available for the months of January, April, July, and October from 1964 through 1966 and cover the western Northern Hemisphere from 140E longitude to 360E.

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.
