Model for Estimating Meteorological Profiles from Shipboard Observations.

A model is presented which estimates the vertical profiles of air temperature, relative humidity, and water-vapor density within the lowest 2 kilometers of the marine atmosphere. Inputs to the model are a subset of standard marine surface observations, obtainable from ships throughout the world ocea...
