Abstract
Part II of this monograph will now be concluded with an application of the concepts presented in chapters 6 to 9. In this chapter we shall therefore return to the analysis of the wind series (wt) which was discussed in detail in Part I. Both, a first order wrapped autoregressive and a first order von Mises model are fitted to the directional component (θt) of the residual series (ft). It is also shown that the wrapped normal approximation described in section 6.3 works well in this example. Using this approximation it is found that the von Mises model is slightly better suited for describing time series in which periods with a prevailing wind direction alternate with periods when the direction changes more rapidly.
