Abstract

This data set contains the Atmospheric Motion Vector (AMV) data for the duration of the 2015 hurricanes Joaquin (Atlantic basin) and Patricia (Eastern Pacific basin). Data are included for the Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellites (GOES) GOES-13 (for both storms) and GOES-15 (for Patricia only). The data for Joaquin are available from 2315 UTC on 27 September to 2215 UTC 8 October 2015. The data for Patricia are available from 1200 UTC 20 October to 2215 UTC 24 October 2015.
