The application site was the mountainous area of the Samaria National Forest canyon (Greece). Seven meteorological stations were established in the area and ANNs were developed to predict air temperature and relative humidity for the five most remote stations of the area using data only from two stations located in the two more easily accessed sites. Measured and model-estimated data were compared in terms of the determination coefficient (R2), the mean absolute error (MAE) and residuals normality. Results showed that R2 values range from 0.7 to 0.9 for air temperature and from 0.7 to 0.8 for relative humidity whereas MAE values range from 0.9 to 1.8 oC and 5 to 9%, for air temperature and relative humidity, respectively. In conclusion, the study demonstrated that ANNs, when adequately trained, could have a high applicability in estimating meteorological data values in remote mountainous areas with sparse network of meteorological stations, based on a series of relatively limited number of data values from nearby and easily accessed meteorological stations. </p></abstract><publication_date><month>04</month><day>30</day><year>2013</year></publication_date><pages><first_page>384</first_page><last_page>389</last_page></pages><publisher_item><identifier id_type="pii">667</identifier></publisher_item><doi_data><doi>10.30955/gnj.000667</doi><timestamp>1714112782</timestamp><resource>https://journal.gnest.org/publication/667</resource></doi_data></journal_article></journal></body></doi_batch> </div>
