Abstract:

This data set contains Northern Hemisphere surface pressure and precipitation data prepared by the U.S.S.R. The surface pressure grids include average monthly pressures for 1873-1981 and climatological normals by month for 1873-1973 and 1931-1960. Precipitation grids include percentages of normal for all Januarys and all Julys for 1891-1979.

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.
