摘要 The discovery of cause–effect relationships helps to understand the natural or physical mechanism[1].Causation inference is a key issue in many disciplines and has a long study history,especially in statistics,social,and biomedical sciences[2].In Earth System Sciences,the cause–effect relationship also plays a fundamental role and has drawn increasing interests.However,for spatially large-scale research,it is not feasible to design and conduct con-trolled experiments to reveal the cause–effect relationships.There-fore,causation inference from time series data has been frequently employed,under the assumption that the cause precedes the effect[3].While the temporal inference works effectively to identify most causation between variables,limitations remain.If the time series is not long enough to catch significant changes of causes and effects,some important cause–effect relationships may be neglected.This limitation is highlighted in Earth System Sciences,as the evolution of global changes may take an extreme long period to present discernible variations.For instance.
