Abalract. A method for optimum modelling of the earth's topography, corresponding to differing meteorological phenomena, is presented. The optimum averaging scale for mountains in terms of orographic cycle-and anti-cyclogenesis is shown to be of the order of 150 km. The use of larger or smaller ave
