Abstract
It is well known that estimation of the vertical distributions of meteorological parameters (primarily temperature, humidity, and wind velocity) in the Earth’s atmosphere is one of the main subjects of research for the analysis and modeling of climates (Kondratyev, 1987), solution of inverse problems of remote diagnostics of the environment from space (Kondratyev, 1988 Kondratyev and Timofeev, 1978), and the development of methods and means of laser sensing of atmospheric parameters (Ippolitov et al., 1985; Zuev and Zuev, 1992). The application of statistics is very important in addressing these problems: this is because in actual practice the spacetime distribution of the required meteorological parameter in the atmosphere is highly specific to the time and place being studied and is often unknown. In addition, the quality of solutions to these problems depends substantially on the completeness and adequacy of the statistics employed.
