Description / Table of Contents:
This textbook on statistical meteorology covers the most recent developments in a field that rarely is treated in depth in general statistics books. It covers general issues in statistical methodology of interest to atmospheric scientists, as well as specific topics such as statistical weather forecasting and the design and evaluation of weather modification experiments. The authors have conducted interdisciplinary research involving applications of statistical methods to meteorological data and were chosen for their widely acknowledged expertise. Researchers, faculty, and students concerned with the application of statistical methods to atmospheric science - and in related areas of geophysical and environmental science - will welcome this important new work.
