Climatological Data - Arctic Stations
publication
http://www.ncdc.noaa.gov
Climatological Data - Arctic Stations is a historical publication series that are available at the National Climatic Data Center (NCDC). The publication contains data from three manned drifting ice stations in the Arctic Ocean. Volume 1 includes data from July 1957 through December 1958 for Drifting Stations A and B. Volumes 2 and 3 include data from June 1966 through April 1971 for Ice Island T-3. Parameters included are: 1. Average and extreme maximum and minimum daily temperatures (Deg. F), 2. Average air temperature (Deg. F), 3. Frequency of pressure by 10-millibar intervals, 4. Station pressure (mb), 5. Number of observations with occurrences of weather, 6. Days with rain, days with snow, rain amount (in.), and snowfall (in.), 7. Temperature (Deg. F) and wind speed (knots), 8. Three-hourly observations of wind speed (knots), 9. Ceiling-visibility (feet and miles), 10. Total cloud amount (10ths), and 11. Rawinsonde data.
To make a wide range of climatic data available to researchers and the public.
