The CCMP data set combines cross-calibrated satellite microwave winds and instrument observations using a Variational Analysis Method (VAM) to produce high-resolution (0.25 degree) gridded analyses. S
These one-degree and five-degree quadrangle summaries give the observation count for an eight-point "wind rose", and means and standard deviations for: wind speed, pressure, air temperature, wet-bulb
Position, sea surface temperature, barometric pressure, and wind speed/direction measured by seven Global Drifter Program drifters launched in the northern Gulf of Mexico during the Grand Lagrangian D
