Temporal Range:
1950 to 1966
Variables:
| Air Temperature | Dew Point Temperature | Geopotential Height | Seafloor Topography |
| Sea Level Pressure | Surface Pressure | Terrain Elevation | Tropopause |
| Upper Air Temperature | Upper Level Winds |
Vertical Levels:
| Ground or water surface | Mean sea level | Tropopause level | 850 mbar |
| 700 mbar | 500 mbar | 300 mbar | 200 mbar |
| 100 mbar |

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.
