## Cyclone statistics

### Description

Produce storm statistics/analysis. This function was used to produce the figures in the paper Benestad, Sorteberg and Chen, 'The use of a Calculus-based Cyclone Identification method for generating storm statistics' submitted to Climate Dynamics 2004.

### Usage

    cyclstat(fname=NULL,psl0=1000,topo="data/etopo60.Rdata",cyclone=TRUE,
             x.rng=c(5,35),y.rng=c(55,72),cmp=FALSE,mon=c(12,1,2))

### Arguments

`fname` | Filename of cyclone stats data.
`psl0` | Treshold value
`topo` | Name of topography file.
`cyclone` | Treshold: TRUE -> less than, FALSE -> greater than
`x.rng` | Interval of longitudes of interest (deg E)
`y.rng` | Interval of latitudes of interest (deg N)
`cmp` | Flag set for comparing two storm data sets: one given a fname and the default in cyclones ('data(storms)')
`mon` | Months to plot a histogram for.

### Value

### Author(s)
