Draft:The International Best Track Archive for Climate Stewardship

Submission declined on 25 August 2024 by Ibjaja055 (talk).

This draft's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article. In summary, the draft needs multiple published sources that are:

in-depth (not just brief mentions about the subject or routine announcements)
reliable
secondary
strictly independent of the subject

Make sure you add references that meet all four of these criteria before resubmitting. Learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue. If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you have not resolved the issues listed above, your draft will be declined again and potentially deleted.
If you need extra help, please ask us a question at the AfC Help Desk or get live help from experienced editors.
Please do not remove reviewer comments or this notice until the submission is accepted.

The International Best Track Archive for Climate Stewardship (abbreviated as IBTrACS) is a database of tropical cyclones active from 1848 in all basins of tropical activity. It was created to collect all historical tropical cyclone best-track data from the Regional Specialized Meteorological Centers (RSMCs) and other agencies, combine all datasets into one general database, and convert them into a widely-used format. It is maintained by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA).^[1]^[2] The best track data provided in IBTrACS are the quality-tested positions and intensities (minimum central pressure with maximum sustained winds) of each storm, all of which are the approximate average position and intensity from available forecast centers every six hours.^[3]^[4]
