Collection of Statistical Data for Meteorological Studies of the Upper Atmosphere

Abstract

The contract called for the compilation of complete aerological basic material for the surface, 700, 500, 300, 200, and 100 mb over the North Atlantic, Europe and adjacent areas. Aerological data of 56 stations were collected and checked from all available sources for the months of January, February, March, July, August, and September of the 4-year period 1955-1958. Missing data were supplemented from charts of the German Weather Service. Missing winds were determined from the pressure field by geostrophic approximation.
