Evaluation of CAO baroclinic QPF for the Atlantic Provinces / by J.A. Fitzgerald = Évaluation des prévisions quantitatives baroclines des précipitations de Bureau central d'analyse pour les provinces de...: En57-57/747-1970E-PDF
"The quantitative precipitation forecasts based on the baroclinic model provided by the Central Analysis Office have been evaluated with respect to forecast accuracy of precipitation area and intensity in the Atlantic Weather Central's land area of prognostic responsibility for the period 1 April 1970 to 30 June 1970. Comparisons have been made with the quantitative precipitation forecasts based on the barotropic model used in 1968. Definite improvements have been noted in the accuracy of forecasting positions of heaviest precipitation and maximum intensity of precipitation. Improvements in the accuracy of forecasts of precipitation areas are less apparent"--Abstract.
