information
The Global Monsoons data are provided by the CPC Global Monsoons Team. The team generates the data using various data sets and model output to monitor and predict the global monsoon systems (African monsoon, Asia-Australian monsoons, North American monsoon, and South American monsoon) on weekly, monthly, and seasonal time scales. The information, most updated daily, is provided for accumulated precipitation, surface air temperature, 200-mb and 850-mb winds, sea surface temperature, soil moisture, outgoing longwave radiation, 200-mb velocity potential, and others. The data sets used include the NCEP reanalysis, CPC unified daily global precipitation, NOAA sea surface temperature, and others and the model output is mainly from the NCEP Global Forecast System and the NCEP Climate Forecast System.
CPC delivers the Global Monsoons data to monitor and predict the major regional monsoon systems worldwide. The data provide real time information about current status and evolutions of monsoons to both internal and external users. They also serve as reference information to the academic sector.

The primary parameters include (total values and anomalies of) accumulated precipitation, surface air temperature, 200-mb and 850-mb winds, sea surface temperature, soil moisture, outgoing longwave radiation, 200-mb velocity potential, sea level pressure, 500-mb geopotential height, vertically-integrated water vapor flux and divergence. The displays of the data include spatial patterns and time series and they are mainly in the firm of maps and text discussions/summaries.
