Climatic variation of the structure of maximum daily temperatures in Spain: A combined statistical and computational intelligence approach.

Two blocks (1904–1921 and 1990–2007) of daily maximum temperature data from seventeen Spanish meteorological stations exhibit a multimodal Empirical Distribution Function (EDF). Most of the stations show important differences in their EDF for each one of the considered periods of time, a fact that reveals the complexity of climatic changes within the accepted general warming trend of the Iberian Peninsula.
