The southern oscillation index and southern Australia
Primefact Number: 615 Edition: First edition Released/reviewed: May 2007
When grazing and cropping conditions deteriorate, rural businesses become increasingly nervous. At times like these we wish we had a crystal ball. We begin reading forecasts and looking at the southern oscillation index (SOI) in the search for answers. But how accurate is the SOI, and does it really have a place in farm management in southern Australia?
The contents of this Primefact include information on the following:
- What is the SOI?
- Is the SOI relevant in southern Australia?
- What is 'correlation'?
- How do I use the SOI?
- When is the SOI most accurate?
