Weekly Northern Hemisphere Stratospheric Analyses from Rocketsonde and Satellite Radiation Data

Satellite radiance information was used to produce a "first guess" of the geopotential height and temperature fields at the 5 mbar, 2 mbar, and 0.4 mbar stratospheric levels, and available rocketsonde data was used to adjust the fields through an objective analysis procedure. The 65-by-65 polar-stereographic grids cover the Northern Hemisphere and are available weekly (on Wednesdays) from July 1976 through April 1980 for the months of January, April, July, and October.
