In A, B and D, E the redline is the threshold value for breakpoint significance [23,24]. In C and F the blue dashed line is the 95% upper tail of the exponential distribution for this statistic, the maximum value corresponds to December 1992.

Breakpoints for A,B,C Temperature and D,E,F Rainfall in Vanuatu using the F statistics(A,D), the empirical fluctuation period of the CUSUM (B,E) and the Kolmogorov-Zurbenko Adaptive Filter, KZAF (C,F). For the F statistics the 30% percent of the data belonging to the extremes was left out. For the KZAF only the seasonality was filtered (i.e., q = 6)
