Abstract:
The observational and climate data resides in 7 books, 'Meteorolgische Beobachtungen Angestellt an dem Observatorium Der K.K. Technischen Hochshulz in Lemberg' (C/db AO L), and 'Resultate Der Im an dem Oservatorium Der Technischen Hochschule in Lemberg Angestellten Meteorologischen Beobachtungen' (C/db AO Lr), both written in German. The data contained in these books are daily surface observations ... and daily and monthly weather totals for each month from 1911 to 1937. These data are for Lemberg in the Ukraine. Parameters included in the hourly observations are pressure, air temperature, humidity, cloudiness, precipitation, winds, vapor pressure, and sunshine duration.
Daily parameters incorporated in these data are mean pressure, temperature, vapor pressure, humidity, and cloudiness; five-day mean pressure, temperature, vapor pressure, and humidity. Monthly parameters contained in these data are: mean pressure, temperature, vapor pressure, humidity, cloudiness, and winds; maximum and minimum pressure, temperature, vapor pressure, humidity, and wind speed; total rainfall, 24 hour maximum rainfall, and sunshine hours; and number of days of rain and thunderstorms.
Additional data resides in 2 books, 'Tables of Meteorological Observatorium' (C/db E43) written in German and Russian. The data contained in these books are hourly surface observations and daily and monthly surface climatic data for each month of the period 1887 to 1892. These data are for the Ukraine. Parameters included in the hourly observations are pressure, air and soil temperature, humidity, cloudiness, and winds. Daily variables incorporated in these data are the following: mean pressure, air and soil temperature, and humidity; absolute maximum and minimum air and soil temperature; and precipitation, sunshine, and evaporation amounts. Monthly parameters contained in these data are: absolute maximum and minimum pressure, temperature, humidity, and 24 hour evaporation; number of days of cloudy skies, clear skies, maximum < 0, min <0, precipitation, snow, hail, sleet, fog, thunderstorms, and strong winds.
These books are part of the foreign meteorological data collection held by the NOAA Central Library in Washington, DC. Information in this collection dates back to the 18th century for daily, monthly, seasonal, and annual tabular summaries, and the 19th century for weather maps. These data are the result of foreign exchange agreements, but the collection has not been updated since 1983.
