APPENDIX TABLE A 



Observed winds and derived wind properties, summarized by 5° square units of 

 area and by months, July 1963 to June 1965 



List of notations 



W(X) East-west component of wind velocity, m. sec."'; wind from the east is negative. 



W(Y) North-south component of wind velocity, m. see."'; wind from the north is negative. 



WSQ Square of the wind speed, m. ^ sec.~^. 



T(X) East-west component of wind stress, 10"^ dynes cm."^; positive eastward. 



T(Y) North-south component of wind stress, 10"^ dynes cm."^; positive northward. 



Example 



Sample column for July 1963, lat. 0° to 5° N., long. 135° to 140° W. 



135 140 



WSQ 3 3 Mean location of observations: + 3 = 3° N. lat., 135 + 3 = 138° W. long. 



30.6 Mean value of observations. 



38.0 Highest value. 



10.0 Lowest value. 



9.9 Standard deviation. 



7 Number of observations. 



This example applies also to W(X), W(Y), T(X), and T(Y) except that the mean location of observations 

 and the number of observations are not repeated.
