Current field forecast verification measures are inadequate, primarily because they compress the comparison
between two complex spatial field processes into one number. Discrete wavelet transforms (DWTs) applied to
analysis and contemporaneous forecast fields prove to be an insightful approach to verification problems. DWTs
allow both filtering and compact physically interpretable partitioning of fields. These techniques are used to
reduce or eliminate noise in the verification process and develop multivariate measures of field forecasting
performance that are shown to improve upon existing verification procedures.
