APPENDIX TABLE A 



Observed meteorological properties, lat. 0° to 35° N., long. 130° to 170° W. , 

 summarized by 5° square units of area and by months, July 1963 to June 1965 



List of notations 



T(A) Air temperature, degrees Celsius. 



T(W) Sea surface temperature, degrees Celsius. 



E(W) Saturation vapor pressure over pure water at sea surface temperature, millibars. 



E(A) Vapor pressure of air, millibars. 



C Cloudiness, proportion of sky covered. 



P Atmospheric pressure, millibars minus 1,000. 



W Wind speed, meters per second. 



W(X) East-west component of wind velocity, meters per second; wind from the east is negative. 



W(Y) North-south component of wind velocity, meters per second; wind from the north is negative. 



Example 



Sample column for July 1963, lat. 30° to 35° N., long. 170° to 165° W. 



Mean location of observations: 30 + A = 3A° N. lat., 165 + 2 = 167° W. long. 



Mean value of observations. 



Highest value. 



Lowest value. 



Standard deviation. 



Number of observations. 



This example applies to the tabulations of all properties except that in the columns for W(X) and 

 W(Y) the number of observations is not repeated from the column for W.
