Table 6 Overview of entries in the “cities” dataset.Wind speeds are given as 10-meter 10-minute sustained average values.
From: Estimation of global tropical cyclone wind speed probabilities using the STORM dataset
Entry | Column name | Notes |
|---|---|---|
1 | City | Name of city |
2 | Country | Name of country |
3 | Latitude | Latitudinal coordinates of capital city as given in Google Maps (maps.google.com). |
4 | Longitude | Longitudinal coordinates of capital city as given in Google Maps (maps.google.com), ranging from 0–360° with prime meridian at Greenwich. |
5–31 | Return period | On “Fixed return periods”-tab: maximum wind speed (m/s) at given return period |
5–20 | Wind speed | On “Fixed wind speeds”-tab: return period (yr) at given wind speed. Wind speeds are given at 5 m/s intervals and at values corresponding to Category thresholds on the Saffir-Simpson Scale, see Methods. |
