About xMCA

xMCA, inspired from EOFs https://github.com/ajdawson/eofs, is Maximum Covariance Analysis (sometimes also called SVD) in xarray.

API Documentation: http://xmca.readthedocs.io/

How to install

via git

git clone https://github.com/Yefee/xMCA.git
cd xMCA
python setup.py install

Future Plan

In next version, A Monte Carlo method will be added for statistical test.

Example 1

MCA analysis for US surface air temperature and SST over the Pacific. This example is taken from https://atmos.washington.edu/~breth/classes/AS552/matlab/lect/html/MCA_PSSTA_USTA.html
