FSU Pacific Ocean Pseudo-stress - Subjective Research Quality
Monthly analyses of pseudo-stress created through subjective analysis of delayed
mode ship and buoy observations. These research quality pseudo-stress products
are analyzed on a 2 degree latitude by 10 degree logitude grid and are then
digitized onto a 2 by 2 degree grid. Coverage is from 30N to 30S, 124E-70W.
Monthly climatologies are created for the periods 1961-1992 and 1966-1985 from
the monthly analyses.
