Abstract

The analysis of uni- or multivariate time series provides crucial information to describe, understand, and predict climatic variability . The discovery and implementation of a number of novel methods for extracting useful information from time series has recently revitalized this classical eld of study. Considerable progress has also been made in interpreting the information so obtained in terms of dynamical systems theory.
