Precipitation over the North Atlantic Ocean

Abstract The frequency of various types of ‘present‐weather’ observations are analysed and a method is derived using these to obtain estimates of mean monthly precipitation. The method is applied to observations from ocean weather ships in the North Atlantic Ocean to obtain the mean monthly, seasona...
