Singular spectrum analysis for a comparison of the climate data between the equatorial zone and the Arctic land — •Naoki Itoh1 and Jürgen Kurths2 — 1Interdisciplinary Center for Dynamics of Complex Systems, Potsdam, Germany — 2Potsdam-Institut für Klimafolgenforschung e.V., Potsdam, Germany
As one of the classical time series analysis, singular spectrum analysis (SSA) is applied to time series. This method gives us achievements in many fields. In our study monthly precipitation in climate data in the equatorial area (Kenya) and the Arctic land (71.25oN and 179.75oE) recently focused on, are analyzed in order to compare the properties of the information such as trends, periodic- and quasi periodic components extracted by the SSA. From the results climate interpretations are discussed.
