... Blencling QSCAT and Weather-Center Analysis Wincis A statistical mode} has been developed to blend scatterometer surface vector winds with surface wind fields from weather-center analyses to create global ocean datasets, 4-times per day, at 0.5° resolution (http://dss.ucar.edu/ds744.4~. The blencling methodology is constrained by an approximate power-law relation that is observed, with regional and monthly variability, in wavenumber spectra for surface winds from scatterometer systems.
