Hadley Circulation and Heat Budget in Subtropics
It is highly recommended that users and prospective users
of our budget products see our recomputed and updated archive at
Vertically Integrated Mass, Moisture, Heat, and Energy Budget Products derived from the
NCEP/NCAR Reanalysis, March 2003. Extensive background concerning the details
of the derivation of these products can also be found on this new web page.
