Zusammenfassung |
In the last few years, the scientific community has witnessed an ongoing
trend of using ideas developed in the study of complex networks to analyze
climate dynamics. This powerful combination, usually called climate networks,
can be used to uncover non-trivial patterns of weather changes along the
years. Here we investigate the temperature network of North America region
and show that two network characteristics, namely degree and clustering, have
markedly differences between the Eastern and Western regions. We show that
such differences are a reflection of the presence of a large network
community in the western side of the continent. Moreover, we provide
evidences that this large community is a consequence of the peculiar
characteristics of the western relief of North America. |
