road accident severity may be influenced by a number of various systematic causal factors. the weather and road accidents have a close relationship with each other and a number of methods have been proposed for measuring the risk of a road accident with rainy, foggy, and snowy weather and high winds. recent studies indicate that road collision rates increase during precipitation. the weather wa...

In the paper a model to predict the concentrations of particulate matter PM10, PM2.5, SO2, NO, CO and O3 for a chosen number of hours forward is proposed. The method requires historical data for a large number of points in time, particularly weather forecast data, actual weather data and pollution data. The idea is that by matching forecast data with similar forecast data in the historical data...

This paper examines the predictive power of weather for electricity prices in dayahead markets in real time. We find that next-day weather forecasts improve the forecast accuracy of Scandinavian day-ahead electricity prices substantially in terms of point forecasts, suggesting that weather forecasts can price the weather premium. This improvement strengthens the confidence in the forecasting mo...

In this paper we want to analyse fuzzy weather forecasts, which are computed in our system and used to forecast pollution concentrations. The system works on real data: weather forecasts, meteorological situations and pollution concentrations. We compare defuzzification of the fuzzy weather forecast with weather forecast from Institute of Meteorology and Water Management. This comprehensive ana...

Weather derivatives enable energy companies to protect themselves against weather risk. Weather ensemble predictions are generated from atmospheric models and consist of multiple future scenarios for a weather variable. They can be used to forecast the density of the payoff from a weather derivative. The mean of the density is the fair price of the derivative, and the distribution about the mea...
