Abstract
Development is described of a Comprehensive Ocean Atmosphere Data Set (COADS), the result of a cooperative project to collect global weather observations taken near the ocean's surface since 1854, primarily from merchant ships, into a compact and easily used data set. Examples of known temporal, spatial and methdological inhomogeneities in marine data, and plans for periodic updates to COADS, including an update through 1986 scheduled for completion by early 1988, are presented.
