Testing Universality in Critical Exponents: the Case of Rainfall
Anna Deluca, Pedro Puig, Alvaro Corral
One of the key clues to consider rainfall as a self-organized critical phenomenon is the existence of power-law distributions for rain-event sizes. We have studied the problem of u…
Data-Driven Prediction of Thresholded Time Series of Rainfall and SOC models
Anna Deluca, Nicholas R. Moloney, Alvaro Corral
We study the occurrence of events, subject to threshold, in a representative SOC sandpile model and in high-resolution rainfall data. The predictability in both systems is analyzed…
The perils of thresholding
Francesc Font-Clos, Gunnar Pruessner, Anna Deluca +1
The thresholding of time series of activity or intensity is frequently used to define and differentiate events. This is either implicit, for example due to resolution limits, or ex…
Scale Invariant Events and Dry Spells for Medium Resolution Local Rain Data
Anna Deluca, Alvaro Corral
We analyze distributions of rain-event sizes, rain-event durations, and dry-spell durations for data obtained from a network of 20 rain gauges scattered in a region of the NW Medit…
Fitting and goodness-of-fit test of non-truncated and truncated power-law distributions
Alvaro Corral, Anna Deluca
Power-law distributions contain precious information about a large variety of processes in geoscience and elsewhere. Although there are sound theoretical grounds for these distribu…
A practical recipe to fit discrete power-law distributions
Alvaro Corral, Anna Deluca, Ramon Ferrer-i-Cancho
Power laws pervade statistical physics and complex systems, but, traditionally, researchers in these fields have paid little attention to properly fit these distributions. Who has…
