U.S. Navy Regional Climatic Study of the United States Atlantic Coast and Associated Waters

摘要

This climatic study consists of monthly charts and tables of: 1) clouds, 2) precipitation, 3) visibility tables, 4) ceiling visibility (mid-range/low range), 5) wind visibility cloudiness, 6) scalar mean wind speed, 7) wind speed less than 11 and greater or equal to 34 knots, 8) wind speed 11-21 and 22-33 knots, 9) surface wind roses, 10) air and sea temperature, 11) wave height isopleths, 12) wave height tables, 13) surface currents (seasonal).
