Recent Advances in the National Meteorological Service of Greece
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: As the various industries in Greece grow and the needs of the nation continue to change, the requirement for expanded meteorological services is unavoidable. This expansion includes improvements in facilities, technological ...
Climatological Relationships Among Precipitable Water, Thickness and Precipitation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Climatological relationships among precipitable water, thickness and precipitation are presented in such a manner that a line of saturation thickness may be defined. One year of data were used to develop such a line and ...
Relationships Between Integrated Atmospheric Moisture and Surface Weather
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Linear regression equations are presented which relate the natural logarithm of total precipitable water in the atmospheric column below 500 mb to surface dew point, sky cover and weather at 1200 GMT over the eastern and ...
An Operational Model for Forecasting Probability of Precipitation—PEATMOS PoP
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A dynamical-statistical model for use in probability of precipitation forecasting out to 60 h is described. This model has been fully operational twice daily in the National Weather Service (NWS) since January 1972. The ...
The Use of Model Output Statistics (MOS) in Objective Weather Forecasting
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Model Output Statistics (MOS) is an objective weather forecasting technique which consists of determining a statistical relationship between a predictand and variables forecast by a numerical model at some projection ...
An Operational Subsynoptic Advection Model (SAM)
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A simple numerical model for use in short-period forecasting (up to 24 hr) in the eastern United States is described. This model has been used operationally twice daily in the National Weather Service since June 1968. The ...
EFFECTS OF VARIABLE STABILITY IN A 1000-MB. GRAPHICAL PREDICTION MODEL
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The most striking shortcomings of previous 1000-mb. forecast models have been over-intensification of pressure systems, especially anticyclones, and inferior predictions in and near mountains. In this article a graphical-numerical ...
Use of a Real-Time Computer Graphics System in Analysis and Forecasting
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Real-time computer graphics systems are being introduced into weather stations throughout the United States. A sample of student forecasters used such a system to solve specific specialized forecasting problems. Results ...
