gov.noaa.ncdc:C00008 National Climatic Data Center, NESDIS, NOAA, U.S. Department of Commerce 19860101 Climatic Summaries for NOAA Data Buoys publication NSTL, Mississippi NOAA Data Buoy Center http://www.ncdc.noaa.gov http://www.ndbc.noaa.gov http://www.ndbc.noaa.gov http Climatic Summaries for NOAA Data Buoys is a historical publication archived at the National Climatic Data Center (NCDC). The primary source of data used in this climatic summary for NOAA data buoys publication is from National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration buoys. Data utilized to produce this publication are included in DSI-1129. This publication presents narrative descriptions and formulae (where appropriate) on data quality, the definition of wave analysis parameters, and data processing along with statistical monthly and annual summaries: Table 1 - monthly and annual means, standard deviations, and extremes for air temperature (deg. C), sea surface temperature (deg. C), air-sea temperature difference (deg. C), sea level pressure (mb), surface wind speed (knots), and significant wave heights (meters), Table 2 - monthly and annual frequency distribution of air temperature (deg. C), sea surface temperature (deg. C), air-sea temperature difference (deg. C), sea level pressure (Mb), surface wind speed (knots), and significant wave height (meters), Table 3 - monthly and annual percent frequency of wind direction (tens of degrees) versus wind speed (knots) based on three-hourly data, Table 4 - the seasonal and annual percent frequency of wind speed (knots) versus significant wave height (meters) based on three-hourly data, Table 5 - the seasonal and annual percent frequency of significant wave height (meters) versus average wave period (seconds) based on three-hourly data, Table 6 - the seasonal and annual persistence (duration and interval in hours) of wind speed and wave height events based on three-hourly data.
