Abstract
The paper deals with the description of time‐series by trigonometric functions and the possibility of obtaining reliable forecasts. The methods of analysis are discussed and analyses of some biospheric series are carried out. The series which have been treated are monthly mean air temperature and annual yield in some fisheries. The conclusion is that there is great hope of acquiring trustworthy forecasts.Keywords
