Methods of Single Station and Limited Data Analysis and Forecasting

Abstract

A detailed discussion of 'single-station weather analysis,' from theory through practical application. Authors define single-station analysis (SSA) as a 'procedure whereby the weather observations at a location are utilized to their fullest extend to provide information, either directly or by inference , about the meteorological conditions and the changes they are undergoing in the near vicinity of the given location.' Discussion basic principles and theory, describes procedures for processing available data, and provides an example using real data. Discusses modifications of SSA technique in certain climatological regimes and describes some statistical techniques for SSA of specified phenomena.
