Northern Hemisphere Climatological Grid Data
d205000
Abstract:
A selected 15-year climatology of the Northern Hemisphere using the Navy Marine Atlas Series and 5-year mean grids summarized from daily grids from the National Climatic Center (NCC). The input data is from about January 1950 through December 1964.
Temporal Range:
1950 to 1964
Variables:
| Air Temperature | Dew Point Temperature | Geopotential Height | Sea Level Pressure |
| Seafloor Topography | 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 |
Data Types:
Grid
