Abstract
This paper employs wavelet analyses of some selected meteorological factors of the Namibian atmosphere to investigate the noise in the data collected from a number of Southern African Science Service Centre for Climate Change and Adaptive Land Management (SASSCAL) stations, for the years 2012 to 2015. The results show some significant levels of noise around the thresholds of various optimal time series peaks of the data. Hence the denoised data serve to represent fairly refined representations of data for the given period. Moreover, the results of comparing the optimal game model solutions for the original and denoised data specifically identified some weather stations that are “humidity noise stable” and “temperature noise stable”. Thus, these suggest that despite the noise in the respective meteorological data for these stations, the effects of the noise in the data appear to be manageable or optimally controllable, within the given period.
