Abstract: It is shown that constant absolute vorticity (CAV) trajectories are more useful on isentropic surfaces than on constant pressure surfaces. A form of the vorticity equation is derived by use of Lagrangian methods. This form ...

Abstract: Skill scores for rating quantitative forecasts are proposed to take into account the deviations occurring between forecast and observed values. One score, the ?deviation? skill score, weights the forecasts linearly according ...

Abstract: A numerical prediction model suitable for computation using large-scale digital computers to forecast amounts of middle cloudiness, areas of precipitation, and precipitation amounts is presented. The model described use ...

Abstract: Modeling of linear features, particularly straight lines and circles, in two-dimensional (2D) and three-dimensional (3D) spaces, is developed, with specific consideration of independent descriptors. This is followed by the ...
