Summary

Abstract: The polar-stereographic grids in ds195.0 [http://dss.ucar.edu/datasets/ds195.0/] were interpolated to create this dataset of 5-degree Northern Hemisphere latitude/longitude grids until 1976, when the National Meteorological Center (NMC) began producing its operational analyses on a latitude/longitude grid.
