Cross-correlation plots
Cross-correlation plots have been calculated with the crosscorr function of MATLAB.
Hourly data have been processed:
- hydraulic heads measured in the shallow (PS01÷PS11, see Fig. 1÷Fig. 4) and in the deep
(PP01÷PP14, see Fig. 5÷Fig. 8) piezometers;
- sea levels measured by the gauge station "Diga Sud Lido" of ICPSM;
- rainfall height measured by the gauge station "Cavallino Treporti" of ARPA Veneto.
