Overview
Description
Subtropical jet position from a new method for locating the subtropical jet, called the tropopause gradient method. It is based on the peak gradient in potential temperature along the dynamic tropopause. This data has the identified subtropical jet latitude, level, and intensity across four different reanalysis products (CFSR-2, ERA-Interim, JRA-55, and MERRA-2), at both daily and monthly output frequency.
