WMONEX: Winter Monsoon Aircraft Flight Data, December 1978

December 1978 flight-level aircraft data collected during the Winter Monsoon Experiment (WMONEX). The dataset originates from the SCIOPS organization and was last updated on 1978-12 31.

Use Cases

• Analyze atmospheric conditions during winter monsoon based on flight-level data mentioned in the description
• Model monsoon-related weather patterns based on in-situ aircraft measurements
• Validate satellite or ground-based meteorological observations against aircraft-collected data

Strengths

• Data is sourced from a dedicated scientific field experiment (WMONEX)
• Provides in-situ atmospheric measurements from aircraft, a relatively rare data source

Limitations

• Last updated 1978-12-31 23:59:59.999000; freshness should be verified
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment
