Abstract:

Aircraft and rawinsonde (300, 250, and 200mb) observations over the tropical Pacific were analyzed to produce monthly grids of wind at approximately 250mb for the periods January 1966 to September 1968 and August 1970 to December 1973. The grid has a resolution of 2.5 degrees and runs from 30S to 45N latitude and 75E to 70W longitude.

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.
