Multivariate non-normally distributed random variables in climate research – introduction to the copula approach
Probability distributions of multivariate random variables are generally more complex compared to their univariate counterparts which is due to a possible nonlinear dependence between the random variables. One approach to this problem is the use of copulas, which have become popular over recent y...
