<div dir="ltr">I would imagine that depends on the threshold you pick for "active" and "inactive" MJO. Usually the PCs are normalized so if the activity is bigger than one (outside the unit circle in the phase diagram) you know you have an anomaly bigger than one standard deviation. But that may not be the threshold you want. You may want 0.5 to include more events, or 2 to only include very large events. Also you may be interested in MJO events only in certain locations (Indian Ocean or Maritime Continent). Did you look at the phase diagram code on the website? If you start with that and modify, it may do what you want.<div><br></div><div><a href="https://www.ncl.ucar.edu/Applications/Scripts/mjoclivar_15.ncl">https://www.ncl.ucar.edu/Applications/Scripts/mjoclivar_15.ncl</a><br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>Maria</div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Tue, Apr 28, 2015 at 10:49 AM, Dennis Shea <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:shea@ucar.edu" target="_blank">shea@ucar.edu</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr">This is quite ambiguous.
