NMC 47 by 51 Northern Hemisphere Stratospheric Analyses, daily 1964-1980

This dataset of daily gridded analyzed geopotential height and temperature for the Northern Hemisphere stratosphere covers the period from January 1946 to December 1980. The 47 by 51 polar-stereographic grids, centered on the North Pole, were produced by NMC's operational model.

For data beyond 1980, see ds067.0 [http://rda.ucar.edu/datasets/ds067.0/], which provides global coverage of the stratosphere on a pair of 63 by 63 polar-stereographic grids centered on each Pole.
