browse graphicPreview graphic
A set of 9 CD-ROMs were produced to accompany the analog publication Atlas of Surface Marine Data, 1994. Each CD-ROM contains monthly mean objectively analyzed climatologies and monthly mean anomalies covering the period 1945-1989. In addition, a number of observations, standard deviation, and interannual standard deviation files are included. Data is stored in binary files using Unidata's Network Common Data Format (NetCDF). Free software and subroutines to read the data and testing programs are included on the CD-ROM discs.
