Two products on tropical storms are currently available: tropical storm
frequency and mean location of tropical storm genesis. The 40-member ensemble
forecast is compared with the climatology. A Wilcoxon-Mann-Whitney (WMW)
test is then applied to evaluate if the predicted tropical storm frequency/location
are significantly different from the climatology. Green bars represent
forecast orange bars represent climatology. The ocean basins where the
WMW test detects a significance larger than 90% have a shaded background.
Note: this a sample plot produced
in the past.
