Abstract: Southern Oscillation indices (differences in sea level atmospheric pressure between Easter Island and Darwin, Australia, and between Juan Fernandez Island and Darwin) were treated so as to emphasize interannual changes and ...

Abstract: Canton Island (2°49?S, 171°41?W) was selected to study equatorial trough weather conditions and their effects on incoming solar radiation. The chosen study period, July 1957?June 1958, was quite appropriate since the mean ...

Abstract: Information and data recently received from Chilean meteorological authorities provide an improved atmospheric pressure record for Easter Island for 1912?13 and 1942?67. This study indicates that variations in the difference ...

Abstract: This paper discusses findings in regard to cloud distributions over the equatorial Pacific and the development of a method, compatible with actual cloud distributions, for using certain existing formulas to compute incoming ...

Abstract: The goals of this study were to investigate the potential of various meteorological factors for representing the more variable insolation reductions in the tropical atmosphere, and to develop curves and formulas for those ...
