Abstract

Functional principal component analysis is used to investigate a high-dimensional surface water temperature data set of Lake Victoria, which has been produced in the ARC-Lake project. Two different perspectives are adopted in the analysis: modelling temperature curves (univariate functions) and temperature surfaces (bivariate functions). The latter proves to be a better approach in the sense of both dimension reduction and pattern detection. Computational details and some results from an application to Lake Victoria data are presented.
