✦ Synopsis

It is probable that, increasingly, genome investigations are going to be based on statistical formalization. This review summarizes the state of art and potentiality of using statistics in microbial genome analysis. First, I focus on recent advances in functional genomics, such as finding genes and operons, identifying gene conversion events, detecting DNA replication origins and analysing regulatory sites. Then I describe how to use phylogenetic methods in genome analysis and methods for genome-wide scanning for positively selected amino acids. I conclude with speculations on the future course of genome statistical modeling.

## Abstract In this study we analyze and simulate (with statistical downscaling techniques) the snow trends observed in the Northern Iberian Peninsula using daily snow occurrence (DSO) data from a network of 33 stations ranging from 60 to 1350 m. We first analyze the annual snow frequency measured
