Considerable short-period variation was found along with a seasonal trend. A curve for seasonal trend was obtained by the least squares method. Daily variations from this curve tested by the Chi-Square method indicated that these short-term variations were not real, but due to insufficient size of sample. Also the number of n consecutive dates with probability values above or below the smoothed curve were found through Chi-Square tests to conform in frequency to the formula. 0.5n.","PeriodicalId":142436,"journal":{"name":"Quarterly Bulletin.
