Modern methods of time series analysis and their applications in earth sciences are another focus of his work: he combined mathematical tools like the singular-spectrum analysis, the maximum entropy method, the extended Kalman filtering and the multi-taper method in a toolkit for short and noisy, chaotic signals which typically occur in climate data sets and used this for the study of paleoclimatic time series, interseasonal oscillations in the global atmosphere, tropical air-sea interaction in GCMs and others.

Water has also left marks on Mars’ surface. A team in the US is looking for further evidence of an ancient ocean by searching for a set of bedforms, typically found in the deep-sea floor on Earth, on the Martian surface. Researchers in the Netherlands are looking for water signatures left on the surface much more recently, in the last few millions of years, during times when snow was widespread in the planet’s midlatitudes and was able to melt on some crater slopes.
