RClimDex, Climate change indecies calculation for all 27 core indices defined by ETCCDI.

Description

The RClimDex provides a friendly graphical user interface to compute all 27 core climate change indices defined by ETCCDI. It also conducts simple quality control on the input daily data. It has been developed and maintained by Xuebin Zhang and Yang Feng at Climate Research Division. The software was used first at the South Africa Workshop in Cape Town, South Africa, in June 2004 and has been used in other ET workshops.
