A study of fractal properties of meteorological series by the normalized amplitude method
The paper considers the fractal properties of series of the first three main components that describe evolution of natural oscillations of mean monthly surface temperature anomalies in the Northern hemisphere for the period from January, 1899 till December, 2002. The time series under question are shown to be stable trend-wise with a relatively low noise level. Estimate of time intervals is obtained for the intervals over which the processes considered demonstrate persistent and anti-persistent characteristics.
