Statistical analysis of historical temperature series
Gergelits, Václav ; Antoch, Jaromír (advisor) ; Anděl, Jiří (referee)
Title: Statistical analysis of historical temperature series Author: Václav Gergelits Department: Department of Probability and Mathematical Statistics Supervisor: prof. RNDr. Jaromír Antoch CSc. Supervisor's e-mail address: antoch@karlin.mff.cuni.cz Abstract: In the present work we deal with the statistical analysis of time-series of a mean-temperature obtained from seven European cities from the Europe Union project "IMPROVE". Properties of the time series are analyzed by means of descriptive statistics, being assessing their homoscedasticity, autocorrelation and normality. We report the ways in which the data has been adjusted, including consideration of the impact of the urban heat island and we discuss the availability of additional data. The theoretical part presents a theory of change point detection for a one change model as well as more than one change model taking an autocorrelation into account. In the practical part we analyze the data using change point detection method. The significant increase was not detected for time series of Cadiz and Uppsala. The significant increase was rather detected for the rest of the time series. The increase of temperature could be in a relation to the adjustment for the urban heat island. Keywords: change point detection, temperature time series 1
