  • Rather than using a lagged regression model, incorporating predictors from years prior to (and sometimes following) the predictand climate year (e.g., Briffa et al., 1983), the chronology was instead statistically prewhitened and the residuals from a general autoregression model were used for estimating past climate variability.
