FOREWORD 



This memorandum provides users of the BOMEX Temporary Data Archive some 

 idea as to the problems associated with the surface temperature observations 

 made during the Barbados Oceanographic and Meteorological Experiment (BOMEX) . 

 Published pending completion of final data reduction and more comprehensive 

 crosscalibration studies, it may be used as a point of departure in designing 

 further studies to arrive at selection and correction criteria for surface 

 temperature data.
