SIGNIFICANCE OF DIFFERENT TYPES OF INF'ORMATION IN LONG-itANGE FORECASTING

~ (Article by Professor M. I. Yudin, Main Geophysical Observatory and Lenin-
grad Hydremeteorological Institute, aubmitted for publication 22 August
1978]
- AbstracC: The auChor gives a criCical analysis
of Che range of information drawn upon for the
purpose of making long-range hydrometeorological
forecasts9 from the poi~nt of view of the theory
of fundamental and con~ugate equations of dynamics
o� the atmosphere and ocean developed by G. I. -
Marchuk. Some concepts are based on the results
obtained by the use of the asympCotic methods
of nonlinear mechanics used in atmospheric dy-
namics. The desire is expressed that large-scale
indirect computations be made and that the archives �
be bolster~d with data for use in hydrodynamic and
physical-statistical long-range forecasting methods.
(Text~ Until recently the problem of collecting Che meteorological and hy-
- drometeorological informa~~.on necessary for predicting for a month and a
season in advance was so,lv~d purely intuitively by each researcher. Hocoever,
in the 1960's-1970's a number of researchers began to define the require-
' ments on the information to be drawn upon for long-ranp,e forecasta, linking ~
Chis to general considerations on the predictability of atmospheric process- '
es and the regularities in Che dynamics of the atmosphere-ocean-soil active
- layer system. Attention was given to a number of elements which earlier had
not been regarded at a11 as characteristics of long-period processes (cloud
cover, precipitation, boundary of_the snuw cover, etc.). Empirical and logical
bases were defined for the need to employ new characteristics.
During these years another direction arose in research. It was based on
variation of the initial conditions in the numerical forecasting problem.
[60J. It was discovered thaC a change in the initial values of a number
of ineteorological elements exerts relatively litrle influence on the results
of short-range nwnerical forecasting. This result means that such

metenrological elemenCs chnnge rapidly, adapting tio the "fundameneal" in-
i~ial conditions.
The Cnnclusion was rherefore drawn rhat in short-range, and especially in
lnng-rnnge forecasCi~g, it is posaible to not collect information on Ch~
- init~.A1 values o� a number of ineteorological elements. The real condi- ;
rions in this case are replaced by some standard conditions.
A new approach to the problem of ~he infarmation necessary for hydrodynamic
lon~-range weather forecasting was developed in the investigaCiona of G. I. "
Mnrchuk (32, 33, 35, 57 and othera]. The ~nomaliea of ineeeorological ele-
ments are regarded as perturba~iona relative to the mean climatic values. ~
~or their determinaCion it is po~asible Co write a system of fundamental �
~ and con~ugate equaCions for dynamics of Che atmosphere and ocean. IC is ;
shown that solution of the con~ugate problem determines Che significance
of different Cypes of inetedrological and hydrologl.cal informntion in depend-
ence on the advance time of tihe forecast and Che intervals for averaging � i
the sought-for function in time and space. ~
The application of the theory of conjugate equations affords a possibility
for ~ more rigorous validation of a considerable parC of Che conclusions
concerning the information necessary for forecasts for a month and a sea-
son~ earlier having only empirical confirmations. AnoCher part of the con-
~ clusions is sub~ect to refinement. In this light a reatudy has been made of ~
the problem of the makeup of Che informaCion whic?~ is used in predicting
temperature and precipitation for the principal agriculturul regiona of the
USSR by the physical-statistical method. Earlier this prob],em was analyZed ~
in [38, 49, 51, and others]. In t'iie examination of some of the disputable
problems we will rely on the concept of the atmosphere-active layer of the ~
ocean and land system as a multifrequency system in which rapid and slow ;
movements in the first approximation can be separated [36, 55].
Tnformation on the state of the upper layer of the ocean (waCer tempera-
ture, ice content). This source of information has long attracted the aC-
tention of researchers investigating the problems relating to large-scale
interaction between the atmosphere and ocean. In particular, in the well-
known studie~ of V. Yu. Vize [15, 16] a detailed study was made of the ice "
content of the Barents Sea as a predictor in the long-range forecasting of ,
_ temperature and precipitation. The correlation established by Meinhardus ~
[58] between the temperature of the Gulf Stream in November-January and
air temperature in Central Europe in February-April was checked and re-
- evaluated several times. There were found to be considerable variations
in the sample values of the correlation coefficient up to a change in sign i
of the correlation during individual periods. In a number of studies it ~
was therefore concluded that data on water temperature in the ocean are
of liCtle practical importance for the purpc'ee of making forecasts for a
month and a season. A useful review of the discussion of this problem and
clarification of a number of disputable points is contained in a book by
T. V. Pokrovskaya [45).

~Oit OF~'ICIAL U5~ dNLY
The ehought has been exprer~sed eh~t the sta~e of the upper layer of ~he
ocenn is a result of atmospheric circulation conditiona. On Chis basis
it is postulatad that models of Che developmenC of macroproceseea can be .
fnrmulnted independently of ~nformation on the ocean.
Scimetlme~ nne he~rs the contention th,il wuter temperaCure h~s 11tC1e varia-
b11:iCy. The conclusion is therefore drawn rt~aC heat exch~nge between the
- ocean and ehe atmosphere is dependent to a higl?er degre~ nn the air ~emper-
~ture unomalies th~n on waCer temperature anomalies. However, an analysis
- of data on Che atandard deviations of waCer temperature and air tem-
perature ( O'~a) in the North Atlantic [26, 27, 29] carr3ed ouC during recent
years does not confirm these statements. Comparison of the O'~ and aTg val-
ues cited in these studies shows that these ar.e comparable valuea. We car=
ried out preliminary computations for checking the naCural hypothesis that
- the raeio of the standard deviation of the mean water temperature during
some time interval rela~ive to this same air Cemperature characteristic
increases wiCh an increase 3n the av~raging interval. (The aense of ~he hy- -
pothesis is that water temperature is more conservative than air tempera- _
ture.) Some tendency to ~n increase in the coneidered ratio with a trans-
ition from monthly t~ seasonal meana is actunlly d~tected. However, it is
weaker than can be expected a priori. EvidenCly, the intensity of sir
transformatioti over the ocean is so great Chat the air temp~erature over
the sea surface also acquires the property of conservatism. This problem
- requires further analysis. -
A solid basis for use of data on temperaCures of the upper layer of the
ocean was the theory of fundamental and conjugate equations~ mentioned
above. The theory makes it possible to represent the air temperature anom-
aly during some time interval in the form of the sum of Cwo tertns, one of
which characterizes the influence of initial disturbances in the atmosphere,
whereas the other characterizes the influence of initial disturbances in
the active layer of the ocean and land. It has been demonstrated that with
an increase in the averaging interval the characteristic ~�alue of the first
term decreases rapidly snd the second becomes decisive. It is understandable
ehat this conclusion does not relate only Co the significance of watex tem-
perature in the ocean. In principle it can also serve as a basis for use of
- data on soil temperature and moisture content, ice content, times of dis-
appearance of the snow cover in different regions, etc.
- It would be of great interest Co make a theoretical evaluaCion of the prog-
nostic significance of the enumerated factors by means of solution of the
fundamental and conjugate equations of the problem of disturbances of the
thermal or precipitation regime. It should be noted that in principle the
incorporation of data on ice content and on the dynamics of forming and~
disappearance of the snow cover and a number of factors important for
monthly and seasonal forecasts do not require validation by means of com-
putations using complex models of atmospheric circulation. An adequate
basis is the conclusions drawn with the application of important simplif-
. ications, such as those obtained by M. I. Budyko [11, 12, 14, and oChers]

InCormurion on ?�he disrribution of cloud cnver. There are contradictory =
opinions on the problem of the significance of data on cloud cover for
forecasCing purposes. As is we11 knnwn, the cloud cover field has long
been considered sma11-scale (spotry). Moreover, an analysis of the rela-
tive significance of different initial data employed in numerical fore-
casCing [28, 60] indicated that a change in init~.~l data on the humidity
field has relaCively little inf luence on rhe forecasting resulCa. On tihis
basis V. M. Kadyshnikov ~.n a numerical model of computaCion of sCeady pre- -
cipieation adopted Ch~ iniCial condition for saturation of the atmod;+here
by wnter vapar in the ~n'cire space, and cloud cover and precipitiaCion at
subsequenti moments in ti.ne are functions of the compuCed verCical velociC-
ies. '
In [46] an attempt was mac'e Co refine Che initial condition for Che humid-
ity field. Humidity was determ~ned as a function of the ob~~erved valuea ;
~ of nonconvective cloud ccrver and the computed verCical veloctty values
at the time used as the initial value. Using preliminary, stiil exL�remely
limited data, such a formulation of the problem led to a satisfactory pre-
diction of cloud cover for a t~ne of 24 hours. With a more precise meChod ,
for introducing data on initial cloud cover there is also some increase _
in the success of the forecast.
We feel that these results must be taken into accounC in solving the problem
of raCional~methods for stipulaCing the initial humidity field for short-
range forecasting purposes. However, for validaCion of the significance
oE data on cloud cover in long-range forecasting it is necessary to have
~ demonstrat3on o~ a different kind.
I1e can mention two bases for inclusion of cloud cover among Che predictors:
the concepC of a regulating role of cloud cover in p:~ocesses ot thermaL .
interaction between the atmosphere and the active layer;
the concept of presence of a low-frequency global component in Che cloud
cover field. ~
i I%
Now we will examine these bases in ~omewhat greaCer deCail.
Ideas concerning the important role of cloud cover as a regulator with a
feedback in Che processes of thermal interaction between the ocean and Che
atmosphere were expressed in 1963 by A. S. Monin [39]. A simple model
for illustraCing this role was formulaCed in [17]. It was demonstrated
that variations of the type .

� Further inve~tigations of the role of cloud cover over the acean in heat ex-
change pY�,-~~;sses are relared to Che theory of conjugate equationa. In [34,
41-43] the influence of summer cloud cover anomalies over the North Atlan-
tic on autiumn and winter air temperature anomalies over Europe was examined
from the theoretical point of view. There wae also a statistical analysis -
of asynchronous carrelations. The principal statistical conclusiona of n~c-
essity are based on a~ime-limite4 aeries of ineasuremenC data on cloud
cover made from a satellite, so that Che investigaCion w~s far from cow-
pleted. Nevertheless, the results confirm the considered influence is im-
portant.
Now we will consider what bases there ure for asserting that there is a low-
frequet?c��; global ~omponenC in the cloud cover field. Here the reference is
not to the ~hermal effect mechanism, which was mentioned above, but the dy-
namic mec~~anism deCermining long-persisting extensive regions of ascending
movements`~, with which the formation and persistence of cloud cover are as-
sociaCed-,
The fi~r!at conclusions that in planetary movements, in contrast to strictly _
large-r?cale movements, the potential part of velocity is not very small
in cdtaparison with the solenoidal part, were drawn in [47, 56]. In partic-
ular, it is of interest to study a graph of the characteristic values of
thr: horizontal divergence of velocity and its component terms, obtained in
- ~+7] by means of "scale analysis" of the tercns in the equations of atmo-
' spheric dynamics. It follows from the graph that under mean conditions the
considered ratio attains a minimum fo~ a scale L1 ~800 km a~d increases ,
rapidly in the region of scales L y L1. Th3s conclusion gave hope for suc-
- cess in an attempt at empirical discrimination of the stable planetary com-
ponent in the cloud cover field. It was surmised that its values can be a
significant predictor in a long-range forecast. On a practical basis it
was possible to collect long-tQrm series of data on cloud cover in the
Atlantic-European secCor adequate for analysis. This material was processed
by the method of expansion in empirical orthQgonal components (EOC). The
expansion coefficients were regarded as predictors. In [52] there was check-
ing of the hypothesis of statistical significance of a set of asynchronous ~
correlations relative to different groups of predictors. It was shown that

the liypotihesis of significance of data on cloud cover iy satiafactorily
confirmed on ~he basis of Ctie coneidered maCerial.
1~urCl~er results were nbtttined in a cycle of etudies [50, 54, 55] in formuL-
r~ting ~ hydrodynamic-stnCistical model of atmospheric clrculaCion. The
sCream func~ion and velocity potiential are among the principal variables.
Spectral transformations of the equations of atmospheric dynamics were
carried out; these lead in Che tirst approximation to the discrimination ~
of a 1lmited number of subsy~tems of ordinary diff erential equations. The
characteristic frequencies and eigenvectors of the �undfimental and con~ug-
ate equations [36] were compuCed in this same first approximaCion for a
number ~f subsys~ems. T~~e important conclusion was drawn thaC some plan-
etary movements are characterized by very small characC~ristic frequencies
(periods of several tens of days). It follows from the form of the eigenvec-
tors thaC for zonal wave numbers n= 1 and n= 2(f irst ewo harrnonics) the
contribution of the potential part of ~he vector is significant. This means
that Che planetary disturbances arising in the vertical velocity field,
and accordingly, also in the cloud cover field, are~ not propagated rapidly
f~om east to west (as follows frorn the Rossby theory), but are very s'lowly
moving waves. The nonlinear interactions of waves exert a sCrong influence
on the movements o~ waves and ridges from day to day. However, with con-
siderable time averaging the Cotal influence of th ese more or leas irreg-
ular inCeractions lessens relative to the systematic movement of the waves.
We can therefore assert that the global cloud cover field is characterized
by peculiarities which long retain their sign and therefore exert a signif-
icant influence on macroprocesses, whose prediction is rhe basic objective
of monthly and seasonal f orecasts. It is easy to see that both are basie
for regarding cloud cover as a very important element in the system for
long-range forecasting and supplement one anoCher. The concept of a regulat-
ing role of cloud cover in heat exchange of Che sea-atmosphere system rests -
on an analysis of forced oscillations of the system and the discrimination
of the low-frequency component rests on an analysis of free oscillations
in the atmosphere.
Now it is possible to understand c:hy in [28, 60) it was not possible to de- .
tect a significant influence of the initial humidity (and cloud cover)
field on the numerical forecasting result. The fact is that the variation
of the initial data was a small-scale and accordingly a rapidly oscillat-
ing disturbance. In order to clarify the principal effect it was necessary
to carry out variation of the planetary field component. i
Information on the pressure field. First we note that in the light of the '
taodern theory of predictability of individual synoptic processes Chere
is no basis for c~nsidering a11 data on the pressure field as a source of
useful information. In particular, at the present time it appears that the use-
fulness of the well-known similarity indices ,/~x for long-range fore- ;
casts requires careful validation. A shortcoming of these indices is that

pr~ssure and wind. It is assumed that the distribution of temperature in
the ~ctive layer of water and land at tf~e initial moment is everywhere
knnwn and the variations of the heat influx in the atmosphere were computed
' independently. An approximate solution of the forecasting prdblem with re-
placement of the values of the horizontal wind velocity component by the
r~e~n climatic values is obtained under these condirions. However, such

from observations.
The widespread use of integration limits for t to t in the formulas

Nnw w~ will pxgmine how to solve the problem of the eignificance o� dgta

b~ nbtgined by aeparating the eiger~v~ctors nf the fundamentel and con~ugate
equationg into "glow" variables correeponding to gmall characteristic
frequenciea and "fast" varigblee correapvnding to large frequencies. T'hen
the approach of asymptotic metf~ods of nonlinear mechenics is applied, mak- _
�ing it pogaible to obCain an approximate solution for the averaged valuea
6f ehe slow variables~ which is not dependent on the valuea of the "fast"
variables. The ov~rwhelming majority of eig~nvecCors relate to frequencies
much greater than 2 ~t/month.
'I'his means that for the purpoae of forecaeting for a month or a season "nl- .
most a11" the spectral componente of the pressure field must be regarded~
r~~ v~lues whnse initial phases exert no influence on the forecagting results. _
5uch a conclusion fully corregponds to the concepts follnwing from use of

develop a veriant of rhe theory of perturbaCione on the basis of a hydro-
dynamic-statietical model.
We do not have an opportunity of discussing the probl~n, very important for
n hydrodynamic-atatistical model, of deacribing the effecta aseociated with
"f~se" variables. We only note Chat in the prepared variant of the model
prcvision is made for a statiatical descriptioa of ehose effects uhich
are ussociated with atipulation of a sm~ll volume of datg concerning th~

Indirect computations and archivizing of data. It can be expected that an
approach based on perturbation theory leads to the establishing of a number
of phy~ically more significant predictors Chan those which long-range fore-
casters }iave at the present time. These predictors in essence will repre- ~
sent the substitut~s for the lacking characteristica of the state of the
.~ctive layer of water and land, and the total v~lues of the heat and mois-
ture fluxes. In addition, here it is necesaary to include an extremely
' limited number of characCeristics of the planetary pressure field.
In this connecCion it is very important to apply maximum effort�s for ob-
taining empirical data on the global characteristics of heat and moisture
exct~ange during individual monthe and seasons. Such a problem is real
since the methods for indirect computations developed by Soviet and foreign
researchers for indirect computations of the components of the heat and
water balance, and parametric description of the state of the active layer,
Ln principle can be used for large-scale computations. A description ~f a
number of modern computation methodR is conta~ned, for example, in the
books [13, 23-25, 40, 44, 59].

'Phis can be said, in particular, about the studies planned by G. V. Cruza

The great volume of work mak~s it desirable to combine the efforts of a nwn-
ber of groups, p~ssibly in the form of a special inCernational program (af-
ter ending of the primary processing of FGE data). It is desirable to dis-

SII~LE STATISTICAL MODEL OF MODERN CLIMAT~

Abstract: For an analysis of climatic procesa-
es wiCh characteristic times of change of tihe
order of tens of years the author has formul-
ated a simple statistical model whoae basic
difference from Che simple deterministic mod-
� els used earlier by different researchers is
allowance for weather fluctuations. The author
has derived the fundameneal equation for the
model, in which only surface temperature, aver-
aged for some region, is considered, on the
assumption that this parameter is staCistical-
ly independent of the other climatic parameCers
and modern climate has an isolated point of :
equilibrium. Ztao very simple variants of the
model are investiRated: Gaussian and power-lxw
four-parameCer.
[Text] Introduction. The problem of the possible influence exerted on the
earth's climate by human activiCy is acquiring ever-increasing timeliness.
A rather greaC number of hypotheses, validated to different degrees, con-
\ c~rning the physical mechanisms of such an influence, has now been advanc-
' ' ed (for example, see [1, 2, S]). However, despite the extremely broad
front of investigations carried out in this direction, for the time be-
ing reliable experimental resulCs have not been obtained; the rigorous as-
sumptions used in the theoretical investigations for the time being give to
the latter only the nature of frequently heur~stic reasonings and propo-
sitions.
Evidently, when reference is to investigation of a possible anChropogenic
change in modern climaCe, it is necessary, in particular, to study cli-
matic processes with characteristic times of change of the order t~f tens
of years. In the opinion of a rather large number of climatologists,

liue during Che indicated cht~racteriat~.c times a substantiial influence on ;
the chgnge in some climatic characteris~ics wi11 be exerted by their
weather tl.uceuaCions. In tihis case we are dealing wi~h a phenomenon ~
which eo some degree is similar to the inf?uence of turbulence on the
courge of some atmospheric processes (�or example, on cloud formation and ~
cvolueion) or the influence of Brownian motion on the behavior of aero-
so1 parricles in the medium. Naturally, in an analysis of anthropogenic
change of modern climaCe ie is necessary somehow eo t~lce c~euther fluctun-
tions intio account. This article is devoted to the �ormulatiion oP one of
the possible models for tiaking them into account. We ttote Chat such c~n ~
artempC was undereaken recently in [6]. We assume t;haC we have been able ;
to generalize somewhat and carry out further development of the'ideas ;
set forrh in ~his study. ;
First of all, we will be more specific in what is meant by the terms "cli-
maCic change" and "weather fluctuations." We feel Chat it is necessary to
do this here due to the fact that for the time being there are ~eersingly ,
no definitions of~these concepCs which are generally accepted in climaCic
theory. .
For Che purpose of clarity we wi11 have in mind the surface temperaCure
Tsurf~ that is, the tiemperature of the air mass measured at different sur- ,
face (or shipboard) meteorological stations or posts. Similarly it is pos-
sible to examine other so-called weather characteristics, such as the pre-
cipit~tion total, humidity, tenths of cloud cover, etc.
A time series of data on surface temperature, if Che measuremenCs ha~~e been
made rather frequently, has an extremely irregular nature. If no aCtention i
- is given to the diurnal variation, for short times Che change in surface
temperature at a stipulated poinC will be purely random and related, in
parCicular, to the random movement of air masses in the atmosphere. We in- .
troduce Che following notations t-{-~n ~
~ ` dt' Tn (t'), T' = T~ - TK~ (1, ,
TK =
. ~ .
['R = surf] where "Lsurf is the charac~eristic correlaCion time T' (rate of ~
- change of fluctuations). [K = cli(matic)] I
It seems to us that '~surf is the most fitting and a compleCely natural ;
parameter making it possible Co separate the weather fluctuations of the i
value from its climatic change. In this case, for example, the weather
J characteristic Tsurf becomes a purely climatic parameter when it is aver-
aged in time 'Gsurf; the deviation of Tsurf from Tcli~ thaC is, T~ becomes ;
the weather fluctuation of surface temperature. The time ~G surf in order of ~

FrequenCly on1.y intuitive consideraCions are preaented with respect to Che
~~ossible behavior of Che variabillty of climatic parameters (climaCology
of second and higher momenta). And indeed, it is not impossible that the
vigoraus development of industry at the present stage can begin Co exert'
an influence (or has already influenced) not the climaCic trends of dif-
ferent climatic characteristics, but specifically ~heir variabilitiy, al-
so playin~z an extremely significant role in our 'life.
Despite the rather rough description of the real processes, simple climatic
models (Budyko, 5ellers, Zat'sman, Adam and oCher models [SJ) have an ex-
tremely high heuristic value. Therefore, it seemed desirable to us ~o for-
mulate, proceeding on the basis of the simplest physical considerations,
a similar model which would describe the evolution of Che~distribution
function of the climatic parameters (in the considered case surface
temperature) under the inf luence of the disturbing facCors.
Principal physical assumptions. We feel that the simplest variant of a
staristical model of climate can be formulat~d on the basis of a kinetic
equaCion of the diffusion type for the ~ distribution. However, for this
it is necessary that the correlation time for the rate of change in weather
fluctuations ~L surf could be considered negligible in comparison with the
- characteristic time of change in ~(we will denote it by 'G~li)� The two
characteristic times of change in ~ closest to 'G surf are detercnined by
the seasonal variation of temperature and the high-frequency variation of
_ climate with a characteristic time of 2-4 years; the next characteristic.
time evidently has the order of several tens of years (warming beginning
in the second half of the past century and ending in the 1940's of this
century, for example). A rather detailed analysis of the state of inves-
rigations of the time sCrucCure of processes in the earCh-atmosphere sys-
tem is given in [4]. Thus, if it is necessary to examine the seasonal var-
iation of ~ as well, then, generally speaking, it is possible only with a'
definite strain to consider the condition 'Gsurf Q ticli to be satisfi~d.

indicaee situaeions when this condition would be satisfied cnmpletely for ;

sary for conaideration. If Chere were no nthers, then already due to this ,
simplificat~on a11 thQ subsequenC description would be Cransformed into

We note that here reference is to possible TcZi values at a sCipulated ~ E
point. BuC for d3.fferent pointa on Che earth the Tc1~, disCribution will
knowingly be different, and in general, even in Che simplest model iC will
be inadmissible to examine the evoluCion of ~ at some painC independenCly ;
of its evoluCion at other points on the earth. However, it seems to ua
that it is possible to discriminate individual regions which in energy re-
spects are more or less closed, so that iti is possible to neglect the
statistical dependence of the surface temperatures averaged for these re-
fions in some first approximation. The choice of the exCent of the region ,
mu~t be made on the basis of additional physicoclimaCic data. Henceforth
by T we will mean the surface temperature Tsurf for which there was aver-
aging for such a type of region.

tion of the kinetic equations from (5) was obtained and valideted by A.
N. Kolmagorov and is cited in many monographs on the theory of rendom pro-
cesses; therefore~ here it makes no sense to discuss thi~ in detail.
The kinetic equation ~COllowing from (5) for describing the evolution of the
distribution funcCion ~ with time has the form

~ This is the ordinary equation af convectiv~ diffusi~n with the drift co-
efficient a ana ~he diffusion coefficient D.
If D= 0, we arrive at a simple deterministic climatic cnodel such as wae :
mentioned in the introduction. Thus, a new element of the proposed climatic
model is the inclusion of a dif.fusion term, which makes it possible to take
into account the influence of weather fluctuations (to be sure, within the
frnmework of the adopted assumptions and simplifications).

new parameter T* characterizing the level with deviation frum which there ~
is an intensification of weather fluctuations of the rate of change in tem- ~
perature and the entire problem involves specifically a determination of
the Tk value. If it is assumed that T* = TN we do not obtain a de- ,
pendence of variability on trend. In Chis case the model is s3milar to the
Gaussian variant, but the distribution form is different. If we simply as-
sume T* = TN, then (12) will, in essence, in simplified tnathematical form
express the hypothesis of intensification of weather fluctuations with the
appearance for any reason of a climatic trend in aurface temperature. In
general, TN for this purpose can replace any other parameter not dependenC
on the parameters controlling the change in surface temperature for the
