2 HU_sbx1_ranges.nc The median, 2.5% and 97.5% ranges of the Boostrap Corrected (recorded+correction) frequency of hurricanes for annual data. 6.37 KB
3 HU_sbx15_ranges.nc The median, 2.5% and 97.5% ranges of the Boostrap Corrected (recorded+correction) frequency of hurricanes for 15-year data. 6.37 KB
4 hu_missed_all.nc All the hurricane correction values arranged based on satellite year (1972-2019), storm size random seed (1-100) and time shift of the ship tracks (-50, -45, -40,..,45, 50) for each pre-satellite era (1851-1971) year. 240 MB
