Figure 13

Hovmöller diagrams showing blocked longitudes for 6 h timescales and 112 time steps for February 1990 with blocked areas (black) and filtered areas (grey). The red marks indicate the center of the block (highest GHGS): (a) no filter, (b) quantile filter only, (c) extent filter only, (d) persistence filter only, and (e) all filters.
