Climate Diagnostics Data Base
Listed in NASA Earthdata CMR
The Climatic Diagnostics Database, DSI-9795, is a historical data set created by the Climate Analysis Center using global climatic data from the period October 1, 1978 through September 30, 1983.
Description
The Climate Diagnostics Database contains monthly averages of selected fields from the National Meteorological Center's (NMC; now National Centers for Environmental Prediction, NCEP) Global Data Assimilation System (GDAS). The major parameters are monthly averages of the following elements for constant pressure levels of 1000-, 850-, 700-, 500-, 300-, 250-, 200-, 100-, and 50-millibars: 1.
U (West/East) component of wind (meters/second), 2. V (South/North) component of wind (meters/second), 3. Temperature (Deg.
