Ocean climate indices (OCIs), which are time series that summarize the behavior of selected areas of the Earth’s oceans, are important tools for predicting the effect of the oceans on land climate. In this paper we describe the use of data mining to discover Ocean Climate Indices (OCIs). In particul...
