FIG. 3. Demonstration of data-processing steps using (a) total monthly precipitation from meteorological station P-1. The original series is transformed into a (b) monthly cumulative departure (MCD) series and is fitted with a low-order, cubic polynomial fit. The resulting residuals are normalized by the historic mean and referred to as the normalized departure series (c). Note the different y-axes for (b) and (c).
