European Remote-sensing Satellite (ERS-1) 10-m Vector Wind, 1992-95

Analyses | Data


The winds were time-spaced filtered and averaged into 1-degree latitude-longitude regions by
Lixin Zeng, with the time-space filtering employed to remove spurious features associated with sampling (Zeng and Levy, 1995, J. Geophys. Res.,100,5133-5142).


The figure depicts December 1992 10-m wind and sea surface temperature. Mountain regions shaded.
