Time series methods, both univariate and multivariate, provide
important sources of information for the analysis and identification
of dynamical properties of a wide range of physical systems.
Traditional approaches are based on the statistics of random
processes. More recent approaches incorporate ideas from the
ergodic theory of dynamical systems. The cross-fertilization
of these two approaches provides unique opportunities for the
application of time-series methods to the geosciences. The goal
of this workshop is to seek out new opportunities to apply recent
advances in the statistical analysis of time series to geophysical
applications. Intended participants are statisticians interested
in new applications, and earth scientists seeking to learn about
recent advances in the application of modern statistical methods.
This workshop will start with a tutorial on the statistical
and dynamical approaches to time-series analysis, including
time-domain and spectral tools, as well as point processes.
Recent methods, such as wavelets, the multitaper method, and
singular-spectrum analysis, will be covered. Applications will
include various solid-earth time series, including earthquake
magnitudes and volcanic events, magnetic field reversals and
sunspot counts, as well as intraseasonal, interannual, interdecadal,
and paleoclimatic time series. Owing to the currency of the
topic, a special tutorial session will be organized to provide
mathematicians and other non-specialists with some perspectives
on the issues of global change, notably the greenhouse effect
and global warming.
