Index Value Plot

This graph shows Southern Hemisphere Annular Mode (SAM) index values (black solid line with diamonds), Southern Oscillation Index (SOI) values (dashed line with circles), and standardized snowmelt index anomalies (gray solid line with triangles). Index Value plots are a visualization tool that allows one to see changes in a particular phenomenons occurrence; for example the map above shows changes in several arctic climate trends.
