✦ Synopsis

Projection-pursuit (PP) principal component analysis (PCA) is a new statistical method that can deal with high-dimensional problems. In this paper, we show how this method can be applied to analyse regional monthly sea surface temperature and rainfall. Comparisons are made with results derived from the traditional empirical orthogonal function (EOF) method. The effect of simulated outliers in the original data on the results is then examined for these two methods. The PP-PCA method is shown to be much more robust than the EOF method. This suggests that the former should be considered as an alternative in many of the climate studies.

Obtaining unknown NMR parameters from experimental spectra of exchanging systems is, from a mathematical point of view, associated with the solution of an inverse problem. Inverse problems are usually solved by iterative procedures and calculations may not always converge and the solutions are rarel
