CSIRO Atmospheric Research Technical Papers
CSIRO Atmospheric Research Technical Papers are thoroughly reviewed reports
that document significant scientific achievements such as model development
and results from field observations. Typically, Technical Papers contain
material that is too detailed or specialised for publication in a scientific
journal.
CSIRO Atmospheric Research Technical Papers may be issued out of sequence.
