Abstract

This article describes statistical approaches that led to our main results regarding the abnormal climate changes of Central America from 1995 to 2000. These results are depicted in the poster (http://stat-computing.org/dataexpo/2006/entries.html) submitted at the contest of 2006 ASA Data Exposition.
