The Analysis of Influencing Factors on the Number of Storms

Article Preview

Abstract:

By using both parametric and non-parametric tests, noticed that both EI Nino and West African Wetness have significant impact on the number of storms. A Poisson Regression Model is then be used to further explores the impact of different variables to the number of storms. In particular, warm phase of EI Nino and dry weather has suppress impact on the number of storms while cold phase of Nino and wet weather encourage storms. Under the combination impact of both EI Nino and West African Wetness, the probability of occurrence of extreme storms is higher than under the other conditions.
