Description
Book SynopsisThis book offers the theory of causal analysis and its applications. The authors have developed this book in relation its applications to four climatological phenomena, to prove the theory of causal analysis in time sequential data analysis.
Local Causal Test and the Partial Causal Test are used to study the theory of causal analysis. These are then applied to understand the climate effects of the eruption at Mt. Pinatubo, effect of the El Nino and Southern Oscillation (ENSO), and North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO). The reader learns about Test(S), a statistical test used to determine if the statistical properties of the data, such as mean and variance, remain constant over time within a local window. The authors also use the Stationary Test and Causality Test in time series to explore relationships within a localized subset of data as witnessed from the climate phenomenon. The book looks at the eruption at Mt. Pinatubo, ENSO and NAO and applies causal theory to study the result
