Barometric Pressure Measurements from a Fixed Platform in 1982

NOAA NCEI Accession 8300138 contains barometric pressure and other environmental data collected from a fixed platform. The dataset covers a three-month period from September to December 1982. The data was collected and archived by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's National Centers for Environmental Information.

Use Cases

• Analyzing temporal patterns in barometric pressure readings over the three-month observation period.
• Correlating pressure data with other unlisted meteorological variables from the same fixed platform.
• Validating historical reanalysis models for the specific geographic location and time frame of the platform.

Strengths

• Data originates from the authoritative NOAA NCEI archive.
• Provides a continuous three-month time series from a single location.

Limitations

• Dataset is over 40 years old and may not reflect current conditions.
• The sample size and specific column details are unknown.
• Geographic location of the fixed platform is unspecified.
