Elements recorded are wind speed and direction, wind speed minimum, mean, and maximum, temperature, delta temperature between levels, pressure, radiation, dew point, precipitation, stability index and precipitable water, and vertical winds. Observations were taken simultaneously at nine levels, using instrumentation mounted on two towers: Tower 1 (18m tall): 3m, 10m, 18m Tower 2 (150m tall): 18m, 30m, 60m, 90m, 120m, 150m Data were originally used to study the wind forces on a NASA tower proposed for Cape Kennedy, FL. The data could be used to compare detailed wind data with more recent data from that location, or used to construct a similar study at another location. historicalArchive NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information Customer Engagement Branch 1-828-271-4800 1-828-271-4876 151 Patton Avenue Veach-Baley Federal Building, Room 468 Asheville NC 28801-5001 USA ncei.orders@noaa.gov https://www.ncei.noaa.gov HTTPS Web Browser NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information (NCEI) NCEI home page with information, data access and contact information. information 8:00 - 6:00 Eastern pointOfContact notPlanned Earth Science > Atmosphere > Atmospheric Winds > Surface Winds > Wind Speed Earth Science > Atmosphere > Atmospheric Winds > Surface Winds > Wind Direction Earth Science > Atmosphere > Atmospheric Winds > Wind Dynamics > Vertical Wind Velocity/Speed Earth Science > Atmosphere > Atmospheric Radiation Earth Science > Atmosphere > Atmospheric Temperature > Atmospheric Stability Earth Science > Atmosphere > Atmospheric Pressure Earth Science > Atmosphere > Atmospheric Temperature > Surface Temperature > Dew Point Temperature Earth Science > Atmosphere > Atmospheric Water Vapor > Water Vapor Indicators > Total Precipitable Water Earth Science > Atmosphere > Atmospheric Temperature > Upper Air Temperature > Vertical Profiles theme Global Change Master Directory (GCMD) Science Keywords 2018 revision Version 8.6 Global Change Data Center, Science and Exploration Directorate, Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC) National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) https://earthdata.nasa.gov/about/gcmd/global-change-master-directory-gcmd-keywords HTTPS Web Browser Global Change Master Directory (GCMD) Keywords The information provided on this page seeks to define how the GCMD Keywords are structured, used and accessed.
