Abstract
Detrended fluctuation analysis (DFA) is used to investigate correlations between the monthly average of the maximum daily temperatures for different locations in the continental United States and the different climates these locations have. When we plot the scaling exponents obtained from the DFA versus the standard deviation of the temperature fluctuations, we observe crowding of data points belonging to the same climates. Thus, we conclude that by observing the long-time trends in the fluctuations of temperature it would be possible to distinguish between different climates.
