Climate Time Series Analysis

Climate Time Series Analysis by Manfred Mudelsee
Climate is a paradigm of a complex system. Analysing climate data is an exciting challenge, which is increased by non-normal distributional shape, serial dependence, uneven spacing and timescale uncertainties. This book presents bootstrap resampling as a computing-intensive method able to meet the challenge. It shows the bootstrap to perform reliably in the most important statistical estimation techniques: regression, spectral analysis, extreme values and correlation. This book is written for climatologists and applied statisticians. It explains step by step the bootstrap algorithms (including novel adaptions) and methods for confidence interval construction. It tests the accuracy of the algorithms by means of Monte Carlo experiments. It analyses a large array of climate time series, giving a detailed account on the data and the associated climatological questions. This makes the book self-contained for graduate students and researchers.

Comment on Climate Time Series Analysis by Manfred Mudelsee
Toward Zero Carbon by Adrian Smith
An examination and exploration of the issues that the Chicago Climate Action Plan (CCAP) deals with and how they may be implemented.
New North by Laurence C. Smith
Explores the 'four locomotives' that are changing the world - climate change, rising population, globalisation and resource depletion - and attempts to predict how they will shape the world between now and 2050. This book is about people, and the 'push' and 'pull' factors that determine where and how they live.
Madlands by Anna Rose
Through the eyes of one young Australian, we're invited to step back and look at the bigger picture of what we know about climate change, and what we don't.
Rough Guide to Climate Change by Robert Henson
Cutting a swathe through scientific research and political debate, this edition lays out the facts and assesses the options - global and personal - for dealing with the threat of a warming world. It also includes scientific findings that have emerged since the 2007 report from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC). » Have you read this book?

Manfred Mudelsee received his diploma in Physics from the University of Heidelberg and his doctoral degree in Geology from the University of Kiel. He was then postdoc in Statistics at the University of Kent at Canterbury, research scientist in Meteorology at the University of Leipzig and visiting scholar in Earth Sciences at Boston University; currently he does climate research at the Alfred Wegener Institute for Polar and Marine Research, Bremerhaven. His science focuses on climate extremes, time series analysis and mathematical simulation methods. He has authored over 50 peer-reviewed articles. In his 2003 Nature paper, Mudelsee introduced the bootstrap method to flood risk analysis. In 2005, he founded the company Climate Risk Analysis. |
