Developed during WOCE, the ASCII Code Manual outlines the codes and contents of CLIVAR
quality controlled surface meteorology data sets released in ASCII
format to the scientific community. The code is a synthesis of standard
World Meteorological Organization synoptic codes, codes used by the
COADS project, and new codes created by CLIVAR. Definitions for all
codes used in the data and metadata are provided in tabular format for
each possible meteorological variable. An example of the ASCII file
format is also provided.
Developed during WOCE, the NetCDF Code Manual outlines the codes and contents of CLIVAR
quality controlled surface meteorology data sets released in NetCDF
format to the scientific community. The code is a synthesis of standard
World Meteorological Organization synoptic codes, codes used by the
COADS project, and new codes created by CLIVAR. Definitions for all
codes used in the data and metadata are provided in tabular format for
each possible meteorological variable. An example of the NetCDF file
format is also provided.
