English
The aim of this analysis is to describe, visualize and forecast temperature changes on a global scale. To do this, we use XLSTAT time series analysis. Analyzing temporal data is a specific branch of data and statistical analysis. This type of data is called *time series* data. We will present various methods that can be used to analyze this type of data. The data used here are monthly air and ocean temperatures from 1850 to 2015. These data can be downloaded for free at: http://berkeleyearth.org/data/
Senior consultant in statistics, Amaury Labenne holds a PhD in applied mathematics. While writing his doctoral thesis on dimension reduction methods, he taught statistics and their uses at university. In 2016, Amaury joined the Addinsoft R&D team, of which he was then in charge until 2020. He participated to the development and improvement of XLSTAT major statistical features. Amaury Labenne is now a senior data scientist consultant. He also provides training on data analysis and statistics. Very pedagogical, he knows how to adapt his courses to his audience. He favors teaching methods based on examples and real business applications rather than on theoretical and mathematical explanations.
