Table 2-1. Table shows the difference in effort required by the user to run CALMET in three different
modes, (1) the most simple a No-Obs mode, (2) a Hybrid approach which combines
observations with prognostic model data, and (3) an Observations only approach – which
requires the most decisions and effort by the user.....................................................................8
