Stability Array (STAR)
Data provided by National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration
Stability Array (STAR) are historical tabulations for U.S. stations and a scattering of stations world wide. It provides, at least roughly, the diffusion characteristics for the lowest part of the atmosphere and biosphere. It is an objective method of determining stability from readily available surface meteorological observations utilizing only the variables of ceiling height, total sky cover, and wind direction and speed as input. The methodology employed recognizes that stability near the ground is dependent primarily upon net radiation and wind speed.

Adiabatic Charts
Data provided by National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration
WBAN-31 is a form on which the Weather Bureau, Army and Navy recorded weather observations in the upper air as observed by rawinsonde and radiosonde. The collection includes thousands of these Adiabatic Charts, with the physical archive collection beginning primarily in the 1930s and ending in the mid 1990s and represents stations located throughout the world. The major parameters presented are pressure (Mb), height of pressure level, temperature (degrees C), dew point depression (degrees C), wind direction, and wind speed (knots).

Mariners Weather Log
Data provided by National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration
The Mariners Weather Log (MWL) is a publication containing articles, news and information about marine weather events and phenomena, worldwide environmental impact concerns, climatology studies, storms at sea, and weather forecasting. The MWL is dedicated to the NWS Voluntary Observing Ship (VOS) Program, Port Meteorological Officers (PMOs), cooperating ships officers, and their vessels. Through the various articles, mariners and other interested individuals are kept abreast of the most current operational uses of marine weather and oceanographic data.

U.S. Hourly Precipitation Data
Data provided by National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration
Hourly Precipitation Data (HPD) is digital data set DSI-3240, archived at the National Climatic Data Center (NCDC). The primary source of data for this file is approximately 5,500 US National Weather Service (NWS), Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), and cooperative observer stations in the United States of America, Puerto Rico, the US Virgin Islands, and various Pacific Islands. The earliest data dates vary considerably by state and region: Maine, Pennsylvania, and Texas have data since 1900.

High Resolution Infrared Radiation Sounder (HIRS/4) Level 1B Data from NOAA and EUMETSAT
Data provided by National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration
High Resolution Infrared Radiation Sounder (HIRS/4) is an instrument onboard the NOAA/POES and EUMETSAT/MetOp Polar-orbiting satellite series. NOAA/POES and MetOp Polar-orbiting satellites circle the Earth approximately 14 times per/day from an altitude of approximately 520 miles above the Earth. The Earth's rotation allows the satellites to see different views with each orbit, and each satellite provides two complete views of the same location each day. HIRS is a high-resolution infrared sounder with 20 channels used primarily for atmospheric temperature and water vapor detection.

Year 2001 Tropical Cyclones of the World
Data provided by National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration
Year 2001 Tropical Cyclones of the World poster. During calendar year 2001, fifty tropical cyclones with sustained surface winds of at least 64 knots were observed around the world. NOAA's Polar-Orbiting Operational Environmental Satellites (POES) captured these powerful storms near peak intensity, which are all presented in this colorful poster. Poster size is 36"x 36".
