[ncl-talk] remove seasonal data

[Will Hobbs]

Hi Sri

To me, your question doesn’t make a whole lot of sense, since typically the annual cycle is expressed as the long-term mean of each individual day/month/season (depending on the temporal resolution of the data).

I guess if you really want to keep the climatological annual mean, I can think of two ways of doing it:


  1.  Calculate the long-term mean (over the whole dataset), remove the annual cycle using rmMonAnnCycLLT(), and then add the long-term mean back onto the data

>mn = dim_avg(data)
>anom= rmMonAnnCycLLT(data)
>anom = anom + conform(anom,mn, (/0,1/))


  1.  Estimate a 12-month cycle using fourier_info()., and remove that from the 12-momth harmonic from the data.

Subject: [ncl-talk] remove seasonal data

Hello dear ncl-users,

Could someone tell me if there is a function in NCL that only removes
seasonal (Annual cycle) data from monthly data?

The function: rmMonAnnCycLLT removes the annual cycle from monthly
(number of months = 12) data and subtracts the long-term means from each
month. But i do not want to get anomalies by subtracting the long term
means. I only want to calculate and remove the seasonal aspect (the
Annual cycle).

Thanx

Sri
