Abstract
Atmospheres typical of the tropics (15N) and subtropics (30N) have been prepared as members of a family of atmospheres, supplemental to the 1962 U.S. Standard Atmosphere; they provide information on latitudinal and seasonal changes in atmospheric structure up to 90 km.
Temperature gradients for various segments are linear with geopotential height. Humidity is incorporated into the lowest 10 km of each atmosphere. Figures and tables depict temperature, relative humidity, pressure and density.

Abstract
Mean monthly atmospheric properties for latitudes 30, 45 and 6ON are described. Temperature-height profiles were objectively derived from observed winds and temperatures, resulting in a family of atmospheres with internally consistent thermodynamic properties. The amplitude of seasonal changes in mean monthly temperatures and densities between 30 and 80 km increases with increasing latitude. The transition from one season to another of mean monthly atmospheric properties is relatively smooth except from late January to April in subarctic regions.
