Title: The Analysis of Directional Time Series: Applications to Wind Speed and Direction ([EBook] /) / edited by Jens Breckling. Dewey Class: 519.5 Added Personal Name: Breckling, Jens. editor. Publication: New York, NY : : Springer New York,, 1989. Other name(s): SpringerLink (Online service) Physical Details: VIII, 238 p. 10 illus. : online resource. Series: Lecture Notes in Statistics,0930-0325 ;; 61 ISBN: 9781461236887 System details note: Online access to this digital book is restricted to subscription institutions through IP address (only for SISSA internal users) Summary Note: Given a series of wind speeds and directions from the port of Fremantle the aim of this monograph is to detect general weather patterns and seasonal characteristics. To separate the daily land and sea breeze cycle and other short-term disturbances from the general wind, the series is divided into a daily and a longer term, synoptic component. The latter is related to the atmospheric pressure field, while the former is studied in order i) to isolate particular short-term events such as calms, storms and oscillating winds, and ii) to determine the land and sea breeze cycle which dominates the weather pattern for most of the year. All these patterns are described in detail and are related to the synoptic component of the data. Two time series models for directional data and a new measure of angular association are introduced to provide the basis for certain parts of the analysis.: Contents note: I: Wind Data Analysis -- 1.
