date: Thu, 09 Oct 1997 12:24:19 -0400 from: Caspar Ammann to: m.hulme@uea.ac.uk Dear Dr. Hulme, my name is Caspar Ammann. I'm working as a Ph.D. student for Raymond Bradley at the University of Massachusetts. He told me to collect Dust Veil Index data from the time period 1985 to 1995. I knew that H. Lamb was updating his pubicated data of early seventies in Climate Monitor, but I could not found any more recent data since 1983 (Climate Monitor 12, No. 3). So my questions: are you still updating DVI at the Climatic Research Unit? If yes, would you be able to send me yearly N-Hemispheric values 1985-1995? If not, do you know, where I could get them? Thanks a lot for your help already!
