Sea Level Pressure

The pressure charts prepared by interpolatingpoint measurements/generated through Numerical Weather Forecast (NWF) models or data assimilation techniques. But these data sets may not provide true field situation. As of today, no remote sensing sensor is capable to measure the pressure fields directly. In the present technical report we presented the methodology of retrieve pressure fields from Quick-Scat/Oceansat-2 Scatterometer (OSCAT) winds using the University of Washington Planetary Boundary Layer (UWPBL) model of Patoux et al (2003) during some selected period. These pressure values are validated with all the available in situ observations.

Daily Sea level pressure data from 2010-2014 is hosted on Bhuvan-Seal level pressure .
