Observation, Analysis, and Prediction
This section describes the challenges of tropical weather forecasting. Then, we examine types of weather analysis techniques used by tropical forecasters. The last topics focus on numerical weather prediction including: the fundamentals, comparisons of statistical and dynamical models, ensemble techniques, cumulus convection, and forecast verification and validation.
