| Summary: | acceptability of fit for each month-hour. Each variable was acceptable at a significance level of 0.05. Because of these and dew point data, heat index values were calculated from and dew point depression values could be transformed to bivariate normal distribution, only three were considered Calculations of the U[] and U[] statistics using a classes and subjected to the same normality tests. Results College Station using a generalized form of the beta Concurrent hourly temperature-dew point and temperature-dew criterion (again at the 0.05 significance level). Month-hour distribution and regression techniques. distribution for the six months of January, March, May, July, distribution were transformed by use of power each observation for the months of June, July, August, and from this procedure also proved negative. Using temperature independently tested for normality before being applied to mos. x 24 hrs. x 2 moisture variables) applied to the point depression data were fitted to the bivariate normal probabilities of the heat index was successfully produced for resemble a bivariate normal distribution. Of the 288 cases (6 results, data was further divided up into wind direction September, and November for College Station, Texas. September. A method for approximating monthly cumulative significance level of 0.05 were used to determine the the bivariate normal distribution using criteria limits for the coefficients of skewness and kurtosis, and the Cornu transformations. Generally speaking, temperature, dew point, variables which did not possess characteristics of a normal |
