The purpose of this thesis is to construct several stochastic
process models for combined statistical dynamic prediction of the
500-millibar pressure surface for the northern hemisphere. To
achieve this, a random forcing function is added to the spectral form
of the nondivergent vorticity equation. Three models, one linear and
two...
