This 'Wind stress of Australia' dataset was derived from global coverage 'netCDF' files produced by the National Centers for Environmental Prediction (NCEP) Re-analysis Project. The means are calculated for the 23 year period from 1976 to 1998 inclusive. The National Center for Environmental Prediction and the National Center for Atmospheric Research are re-analysing the last 40 years of global met. data using present methods to produce a best-possible hindcast of atmospheric conditions through that period. The grid spacing is 1.875 deg Longitude by (about) 1.9 deg Latitude.
