Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The National Hurricane Center and the National Hurricane Research Laboratory joined forces in an effort to improve techniques for forecasting hurricane motion in the spring of 1959 when the latter moved its headquarters ...
OBJECTIVE PREDICTION OF FIVE-DAY MEAN TEMPERATURES DURING WINTER
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A statistical screening procedure is used to derive linear multiple-regression equations which express 5-day mean surface temperature as a function of 5-day mean 700-mb heights centered 2 days earlier. Application of these ...
OBJECTIVE FORECASTS OF DAILY AND MEAN SURFACE TEMPERATURE
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Multiple regression equations for predicting 5-day mean temperatures in the United States were originally computed from 5-day mean values of both 700-mb. height and surface temperature, but they gave better results ...
Successful Test of an Airborne Gas Chromatograph
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A portable gas chromatograph designed for real-time studies in diffusion has been successfully tested in an airborne application. A 10-mi low-level plume of colorless, odorless non-toxic sulfur hexafluoride (SF6) was laid ...
