Description
    To calculate the index, both the Fortaleza and Quixeramobim time series are standardized by calendar month with respect to the period 1950-79. This calculation removes the seasonal cycle of the mean and standard deviation for each series. The standardized series are then averaged together, and standardized again. This series is called the Fortaleza Quixeramobim index (FQI).
