Climate data analysis: Challenges and the role the climstats software tool

The ability to rapidly mine large climate datasets as multi-disciplinary processes evolve in a particular context is becoming critical

Abstract

The ability to rapidly mine large climate datasets as multi-disciplinary processes evolve in a particular context is becoming increasing critical. It is a significant obstacle to multi-disciplinary processes when new climate information cannot be generated timeously. The absence of this capacity results in a strong dependence on pre-generated climate information generated within highly resourced, typically northern institutions, strongly decoupled from real world applications.
