NOTES:

  • Differences are calculated as follows: (COLUMN - ROW)
  • The table above should be read in two diagonal sections (upper right, lower left) separated by a line of 0s.
  • Data in the upper right diagonal section shows the global mean difference (upper right) and seasonal amplitude difference (lower left)
  • Data in the lower left diagonal section shows, for the whole record mean anomalies, the correlation coefficients (upper right) and regression slope difference (lower left).
