Abstract
Data collected through the routine operations and scientific field experiments throughout the world provided valuable data sets to perform our model development and analysis. Appendix C is a summary of the research centers and data resources that are available to us. These centers archive an enormous wealth of meteorological measurements and archived atmospheric information and in a majority of cases the data can be acquired over the Internet. The archived radiosonde soundings over the world by the University of Wyoming and the National Weather Service were invaluable in compiling our temperature profile data sets.
