Abstract:

This report presents mean surface level pressure, 500 hPa and 700 hPa charts for each Lamb atmospheric circulation type. This work provides a set of charts that are to some extent typical of each circulation type, but also serves to validate the code used to access the ACCORD project surface level pressure, 500 hPa and 700 hPa data and to attatch the appropriate Lamb classification for each record.
