Ano: Computes Forecast or Observed Anomalies

Description

This function computes anomalies from any experimental or observational matrix output from Load() and their climatologies output from Clim().

Usage

Ano(var, clim)

Value

Array with same dimensions as 'var'.

Examples

# Load sample data as in Load() example:
example(Load)
clim <- Clim(sampleData$mod, sampleData$obs)
ano_exp <- Ano(sampleData$mod, clim$clim_exp)
ano_obs <- Ano(sampleData$obs, clim$clim_obs)
runmean_nb_months <- 12
dim_to_smooth <- 4  # Smooth along lead-times
smooth_ano_exp <- Smoothing(ano_exp, runmean_nb_months, dim_to_smooth)
smooth_ano_obs <- Smoothing(ano_obs, runmean_nb_months, dim_to_smooth)
PlotAno(smooth_ano_exp, smooth_ano_obs, startDates, 
        toptitle = paste('smoothed anomalies'), ytitle = c('K', 'K', 'K'), 
        legends = 'ERSST', biglab = FALSE, fileout = 'tos_ano.eps')
