TOVS Polar Pathfinder (Path-P) Derived Arctic Winds, Version 1.0
The TIROS-N Operational Vertical Sounder (TOVS) Polar Pathfinder (Path-P) derived wind dataset consists of gridded daily wind fields north of 60 degrees latitude. The dataset is gridded at 100km spatial resolution on an Equal-Area Scalable Earth Grid (EASE-Grid). Daily Northern Hemisphere data are a...
