In this project, I used MATLAB to find any correlation between the El Niño weather patterns which occur in the Pacific and the North American summer Monsoon. Both wind patterns emerge from the central Pacific, so I was interested in seeing if the two have any relation with each other, comparing precipitation levels in Southern Arizona with the sea surface temperatures in the Niñ0 3.4 region in the central Pacific.
Great job with the use of MATLAB. This kind of modeling is done at the graduate level.
