Abstract:
Mean u- and v- component wind fields at 850-hPa are provided over India for a set of 30 objectively derived weather patterns, which were generated by k-means clustering of daily (1200 UTC) reanalysis fields from ERA-interim between 1979 and 2016. The weather patterns are defined on a 1 x 1 degree resolution grid, which covers the area from 62 degrees west to 98 degrees west and 2 degrees north to 37 degrees north. The boundary coordinates represent the central positions of the outer grid points.
