Abstract

Daily 150 mb maps south of 45°S were prepared for the period 16 November 1975–16 March 1976, using the extensive coverage of the TWERLE balloons in that area, in addition to the sparse radiosonde network. A sample of one daily map for each month, and five monthly average maps am given to demonstrate the technique and the potential information in the TWERLE data.
