Abstract
Some barotropic 500 mb forecasts are compared in the following manners: 1) comparison of the differences between forecasts made from analyses with identical boundary regions but different inner parts 2) comparison of forecasts made from two independent analyses based on identical material, and 3) comparison between forecasts based on two analyses with identical inner region but different boundary regions. The result of a computation of the standard deviation of the vorticity and the Jacobian J(η, φ) is given and discussed, the deviation being due entirely to the personal factor in upper air analysis.
