<i>Brief communication</i> "A statistical validation for the cycles found in air temperature data using a Morlet wavelet-based method"

Recently, new cycles, associated with periods of 30 and 43 months, respectively, have been observed by the authors in surface air temperature time series, using a wavelet-based methodology. Although many evidences attest the validity of this method applied to climatic data, no systematic study of it...
