A. Data Set AB<br />
Twelve-hour pressure and temperature fields. These data can be read<br />
with the following FORTRAN statements:<br />
INTEGER LAT, LD, LH, LONG, LM, LY, PX, PXX, PXY, PY, PYY<br />
REAL EP, ET, P, T<br />
READ (,1) LY, LM, LD, LH, LAT, LONG, P, T, EP, ET, PX, PY, PXX,<br />
PXY, PYY<br />
1 FORMAT (4I3, I4, I5, F8.1, F7.1, 2F5.1, 2I5, 3I6)<br />
LY is the year less 1900.<br />
LM is the month; 1 for January, 2 for February, etc.<br />
LD is the day <strong>of</strong> the month.<br />
LH is the hour in GMT; LH = 0 or 12.<br />
LAT is the latitude in degrees north.<br />
LONG is the longitude in degrees east.<br />
P<br />
is the interpolated pressure in millibars.<br />
T<br />
is the interpolated temperature in degrees Celsius<br />
averaged from LH - 12 to LH + 12 hours.<br />
EP is the interpolation error variance in millibars squared.<br />
ET is the interpolation error variance in degrees Celsius<br />
squared.<br />
PX, PY are the pressure derivatives times 10 3 in the x and y<br />
directions. PX and PY have units <strong>of</strong> millibars per 10 3<br />
kilometers.<br />
PXX, PXY, are the interpolated second derivatives <strong>of</strong> pressure times<br />
PYY 10 6 . Their units are millibars per 10 6 kilometers.<br />
B. Data Set C<br />
Twelve-hour buoy positions. These data can be read with the following<br />
FORTRAN statements:<br />
INTEGER<br />
REAL<br />
ID, LD, LH, LM, LY<br />
LAT, LONG<br />
READ (,1) LY, LM, LD, LH, ID, LAT, LONG<br />
1 FORMAT (4I3, I6, F7.3, F9.3)<br />
