Cyclone Occurrence Mapping: Equal Area or Raw Frequencies?Source: Monthly Weather Review:;1981:;volume( 109 ):;issue: 001::page 168Author:Hayden, Bruce P.

Abstract: Meteorological data extracted from maps and charts is frequently normalized for area because grid cell size changes with latitude. Raw and area-normalized cyclone frequency data were compared. Area normalization deforms mean frequency patterns. The patterns of standard deviations about the mean are not deformed in the same way. Area normalization does not change calculated principal components or their time histories of weightings.
