Brazil Upper Air (DSI-6324)
Entry ID:
gov.noaa.ncdc.C00564
Summary
Abstract:
Brazil Upper Air is historical digital data set DSI-6324, archived at the National Climatic Data Center (NCDC). This is meteorological upper air data. This is a historical data set of upper air data for 1951-81 from Brazil. DSI-6324 was included in the larger Comprehensive Aerological Data Set (CARDS) Upper Air data set, DSI-6305, which was quality controlled as it was assembled from many smaller data sets. DSI-6324 itself was not quality controlled at the NCDC. Most users should not request DSI-6324, but should instead opt for DSI-6305. Major parameters in upper air data sets are: pressure, temperature, relative humidity, and wind speed and direction.
Purpose: To make a wide range of climatic data available to researchers and the public. SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION: data set CURRENTNESS REFERENCE: Ground Condition
