Road Climatology: Determination of Calculated Values of Meteorological Characteristics

This paper describes a methodology for determining the values of meteorological characteristics of a region for use in road-related applications. Meteorological characteristics, even for one region, usually vary within significant limits. Their calculated value could be determined on the basis of observation data from many years processed by statistical methods. Examples are given on how to calculate the main meteorological characteristics of the given percentage of integral probability which are used in road design, construction and maintenance.
