ArcticRIMS: NCEP Reanalysis Wind Direction
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/106.244

Summary
This dataset contains NCEP Reanalysis Wind Direction data. Gridded daily time
step data from Ohio State University based on National Centers for
Environmental Prediction/National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCEP/NCAR)
reanalysis data, interpolated from the NCEP/NCAR grids (~209km) to the 25km
Northern Hemisphere Equal-Area Scalable Earth Grid (EASE-Grid) using a
bi-lagrange interpolation formula. As part of the data processing of Arctic
Rapid Integrated Monitoring System (ArcticRIMS) based at the Water Systems
Analysis Group (WSAG), University of New Hampshire all data sets have been
aggregated to multiple temporal and spatial resolutions. The data is presented
in 24 sub-datasets of different spatial and temporal aggregations.
