This book is a 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.
In these summaries, definitions are:
1. Hourly/daily/monthly/seasonal/annual data -- values determined for each consecutive period, e.g. monthly temperature data: January 1900, February 1900, etc.
2. Long-term data -- values determined over a period of years, e.g. long-term monthly temperature data using January 1901, January 1902, etc.
