| description | Like many of that day who became meteorologists, Ed was assisted in his career choice by the U.S. government, which offered him the options of being drafted, entering Officer's Candidate School and becoming a naval supply officer, or attending Penn State as an air force officer and studying meteorology; it was probably not a hard choice for Ed. Along with his former student, Allan Murphy, Ed added much to the science of weather forecast verification, and through their joint 1967 work, "A Note on Probability Forecasts and 'Hedging'," also in the Journal of Applied Meteorology, introduced the term "proper" in connection with forecasts and scoring systems. |
