Summary, Etc.(with French, Russian and Spanish) The present note is a summary of the status in the field of numerical weather analysis and forecasting as of early 1961. An attempt has been made to try to formulate the theoretical models and deductions proposed in verbal form to be more easily interpreted by research workers active in the field, as well as the practical meteorologists engaged in daily forecasting activities, using conventional methods. In the second chapter, concerned with data processing and data analysis, it is pointed out that such methods will find an increasing applicability in a large number of the activities in which the weather services are engaged and not merely for the preparation of data for numerical forecasting. The third chapter deals with methods of numerical forecasting. All tests of the barotropid model and baroclinic models reported until the latter part of 1960 are presented in summary form. The data demonstrate the success of these models as compared with conventional methods of forecasting but they also show that the improvement obtained with the aid of baroclinic models is small as compared to forecasts with the barotropic model. An outline of the present approach to the construction of more sophisticated models for numerical forecasting is then given; of particular importance are the various requirements of consistency that have recently been formulated. To develop methods for numerical forecasting it is of great importance to have an idea about the data requirements. A brief analysis of this problem is given at the end of the report
