  • A Guide to Empirical Orthogonal Functions for Climate Data Analysis

    by Antonio Navarra, Valeria Simoncini ...
    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    Climatology and meteorology have basically been a descriptive science until it became possible to use numerical models, but it is crucial to the success of the strategy that the model must be a good representation of the real climate system of the Earth. Models are required to reproduce not only the mean properties of climate, but also its variability and the strong spatial relations between ... Read more
