Weibull distribution

Term · Meteorology and atmospheric science · MLC-T-MET-010194

A continuous probability distribution used in meteorology and other fields to model phenomena with varying rates of occurrence over time. It is particularly useful for analyzing extreme events, such as wind speeds, precipitation amounts, or fatigue life of materials. The distribution is characterized by shape, scale, and location parameters.
