[ferret_users] Results of EOF analysis



Dear Ferret users,

I am new in ferret. I am a Masters student. I have done EOF analysis following the ef_eofsvd_demo.jnl for my masters dissertation. My installed version is ferret 6.93. I have calculated the same things i.e. the spatial and temporal variability of the weekly MSLA data of 1993-2015 from AVISO.

However, I am not sure whether my calculation is OK or not. Is my calculation correct? How can I discuss about the spatial and the temporal modes of my figures? My interest is meso scale variability. The first and 2nd modes would be the seasonal or sub-seasonal variability in my little knowledge. Are the next mode for the meso-scale variability?

What does y axis denote in my time_amplitude figures (attached below)? is it the amplitude? In addition, in the spatial maps of modes (1-4), what is the scale values (e.g. -0.08 to 0.18 for first mode in space). Is it my variable (sla)? 

Actually, I am from different background and have a little knowledge on EOF. Could anyone please give me a little time on it.

I will be grateful to you all. Thank in advance.


Cheers,
Masud
