[ncl-talk] Regression

[Adam Phillips]

Hi Morteza,
What is typically done in this situation is that an area-average of the
nino4 region is calculated, and then that timeseries is used to regress
against another 3D field.
For example:
llats = -5.    ; nino4 region
llatn = 5.
llonw = 160.
llone = 210.
nino4 =
wgt_areaave(sst(:,{llats:llatn},{llonw:llone}),coswgt({llats:llatn}),1.0,0)
nino4 at long_name = "nino4 timeseries (monthly)"
RC  = regCoef_n(nino4,SSTA_Tropical_Pacific,0,0)

The resulting RC array will be 2-dimensional.

Hope that makes sense. If you have any further questions please respond to
the ncl-talk email list.
Adam
