  2. Lemon technique - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lemon_technique

    Lemon technique. The Lemon technique is a method used by meteorologists using weather radar to determine the relative strength of thunderstorm cells in a vertically sheared environment. It is named for Leslie R. Lemon, the co-creator of the current conceptual model of a supercell. [1] The Lemon technique is largely a continuation of work by ...

  3. College of DuPage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/College_of_DuPage

    College of DuPage is a public community college with its main campus in Glen Ellyn, Illinois. [3] The college also owns and operates satellite campuses in Addison, Carol Stream, Naperville and Westmont. [4] [5] With more than 20,000 students, the College of DuPage is the second largest provider of undergraduate education in Illinois, after ...

  4. History of numerical weather prediction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_numerical...

    The use of model ensemble forecasts since the 1990s helps to define the forecast uncertainty and extend weather forecasting farther into the future than otherwise possible. Background [ edit ] Until the end of the 19th century, weather prediction was entirely subjective and based on empirical rules, with only limited understanding of the ...

  5. Weather Research and Forecasting Model - Wikipedia

    Time period is from 0000 UTC 22 August 2005 to 0000 UTC 24 August 2005. The Weather Research and Forecasting ( WRF) Model [1] ( / ˈwɔːrf /) is a numerical weather prediction (NWP) system designed to serve both atmospheric research and operational forecasting needs. NWP refers to the simulation and prediction of the atmosphere with a computer ...

  6. Plant disease forecasting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plant_disease_forecasting

    Plant disease forecasting. Plant disease forecasting is a management system used to predict the occurrence or change in severity of plant diseases. At the field scale, these systems are used by growers to make economic decisions about disease treatments for control. Often the systems ask the grower a series of questions about the susceptibility ...

  7. Forecast skill - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Forecast_skill

    Weather forecast skill is often presented in the form of seasonal geographical maps. Forecasting skill for single-value forecasts (i.e., time series of a scalar quantity) is commonly represented in terms of metrics such as correlation, root mean squared error, mean absolute error, relative mean absolute error, bias, and the Brier score, among ...

  8. Cloud physics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cloud_physics

    Weather. Cloud physics is the study of the physical processes that lead to the formation, growth and precipitation of atmospheric clouds. These aerosols are found in the troposphere, stratosphere, and mesosphere, which collectively make up the greatest part of the homosphere. Clouds consist of microscopic droplets of liquid water (warm clouds ...

  9. Structured prediction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structured_prediction

    Structured prediction or structured (output) learning is an umbrella term for supervised machine learning techniques that involves predicting structured objects, rather than scalar discrete or real values. [1] Similar to commonly used supervised learning techniques, structured prediction models are typically trained by means of observed data in ...
