Abstract

The present report gives the results of an experiment in objective analysis with Indian data. The technique is similar to Cressman’s method, with an additional check for horizontal consistency of data.

 

              The average of 5-day normals and the previous 24.hr forecast were used as the first-guess field. The first-guess was then improved with the available current data by using suitable weighting factors.

 

             The result of using successive scans of radius 5,10 and 15 degrees (latitude/longitude) are presented in this report.
