Editor David Hastings, NOAA/NESDIS National Geophysical Data Center, Boulder, Colorado
The files document.wp5, document.ws7, document.doc, document.ps and
document.asc are Word Perfect 5.1, Word Star 7, Microsoft Word 6,
Adobe PostScript and ASCII (respectively) versions of a manuscript
published in the Bulletin of the American Meteorological Society
that describe the entire data set as presented in Disc 1. A
HTML version of this documentation
is also available.
These data have been resampled from Disc 1's holdings, to enhance their
use with the ancillary data (in the \data\ncillary directory of this Disc 2).
These data are resampled to 1080 rows by 2160 columns. Areas north of 75
degrees north and south of 55 degrees south latitude (that are not covered
in the original data) have been filled with zeros to improve compatibility
with the data in \data\ncillary, which are fully global in extent.
