LECTURES ON NUMERICAL WEATHER PREDICTION

Abstract

This set of notes is based on a series of lectures presented at the Department of Meteorology of the Hebrew University of Jerusalem during 1961 - 1962. The topics are selected so as to trace the development of numerical models, from the geostrophic to the nongeostrophic. Application for prediction of specific phenomena, such as the hurricane and the sea breeze, is discussed. Much emphasis is placed on discussion of integral constraints. (Author)
