Climate Prediction. Part 1. Cyclone Frequency.

Climate prediction models based on multivariate analyses of cyclone frequencies are constructed from historical data (1885-1960) and evaluated for forecast skill on independent data (1960-1983). Cyclone frequencies are predicted for six-month duration seasons at 87 locations over eastern North Ameri...
