PREDICTION OF THE 400-FOOT TEMPERATURE IN THE NORTH ATLANTIC.

Equations for computing mean temperature at 400 feet in the North Atlantic in terms of mean annual surface temperature and its amplitude have been derived from BT data collected at five ocean weather stations and in three other widely separated areas. By use of temperature anomaly values at 400 feet...

Description
Summary:Equations for computing mean temperature at 400 feet in the North Atlantic in terms of mean annual surface temperature and its amplitude have been derived from BT data collected at five ocean weather stations and in three other widely separated areas. By use of temperature anomaly values at 400 feet, as related to mean surface temperature anomalies, the temperature at 400 feet can be predicted several days in advance with an approximation of 1.1 F.
