Conditional probabilities of daily relative sunshine data and the dependence on the weather of the previous day

Abstract In this paper, the conditional probabilities p11(m, x) and p01(m, x) of the daily relative sunshine (DRS) are estimated for each month m, using available data for 30 years. p11(m, x) (p01(m, x)) is the probability that the DRS of a day for a certain month is greater than x, (o
