To disentangle the intricate relationship between biomass power generation in Iran and the public's curiosity about the whereabouts of our avian friends when the heavens open, we embarked on a delightfully convoluted methodological journey that could rival the flight path of a migrating bird.

First and foremost, we scoured the digital landscape, combing through the vast expanse of the internet like enthusiastic birdwatchers armed with binoculars and an insatiable curiosity. We primarily focused on data sourced from the Energy Information Administration and Google Trends, as these platforms offered a treasure trove of information related to both the generation of biomass power in Iran and the collective pondering of avian rain sheltering behavior.

Our data collection spanned the years 2009 to 2021, allowing us to capture a wide spectrum of biomass power generation trends and Google searches for avian meteorological escapades. If you’re wondering why we chose these specific years, well, 2009 marked the inauguration of the first commercial-scale biomass power plant in Iran, while 2021 represents the culmination of our data collection efforts – and an era in which bird-watching enthusiasts and renewable energy enthusiasts continue to coexist in harmony, if not in direct correlation.

With this abundance of data at our figurative fingertips, we employed a rigorous statistical analysis to unravel the potential connection between these seemingly disparate phenomena. Regression models, correlation coefficients, and other statistical tools served as our trusty binoculars as we peered into the nuanced relationships between biomass power generation and public intrigue about avian precipitation preferences.

While our methodology may have been as meandering as a wren's flight path, rest assured that our approach adhered to the highest standards of statistical rigor and methodological integrity. We navigated the complexities of data analysis with the precision of a well-coordinated flock of geese, ensuring that our findings would withstand the scrutiny of the academic community and potentially elicit a few cheerful chirps of surprise along the way.

Correlation r = 0.7808108 (Pearson correlation coefficient)
Correlation is a measure of how much the variables move together. If it is 0.99, when one goes up the other goes up. If it is 0.02, the connection is very weak or non-existent. If it is -0.99, then when one goes up the other goes down. If it is 1.00, you probably messed up your correlation function.

r2 = 0.6096655 (Coefficient of determination)
This means 61% of the change in the one variable (i.e., Google searches for 'where do birds go when it rains') is predictable based on the change in the other (i.e., Biomass power generated in Iran) over the 13 years from 2009 through 2021.

p < 0.01, which is statistically significant(Null hypothesis significance test)
The p-value is 0.0016. 0.0016302091785893112000000000
The p-value is a measure of how probable it is that we would randomly find a result this extreme. More specifically the p-value is a measure of how probable it is that we would randomly find a result this extreme if we had only tested one pair of variables one time.

But I am a p-villain. I absolutely did not test only one pair of variables one time. I correlated hundreds of millions of pairs of variables. I threw boatloads of data into an industrial-sized blender to find this correlation.

Who is going to stop me? p-value reporting doesn't require me to report how many calculations I had to go through in order to find a low p-value!
On average, you will find a correaltion as strong as 0.78 in 0.16% of random cases. Said differently, if you correlated 613 random variables Which I absolutely did.
with the same 12 degrees of freedom, Degrees of freedom is a measure of how many free components we are testing. In this case it is 12 because we have two variables measured over a period of 13 years. It's just the number of years minus ( the number of variables minus one ), which in this case simplifies to the number of years minus one.
you would randomly expect to find a correlation as strong as this one.

[ 0.4, 0.93 ] 95% correlation confidence interval (using the Fisher z-transformation)
The confidence interval is an estimate the range of the value of the correlation coefficient, using the correlation itself as an input. The values are meant to be the low and high end of the correlation coefficient with 95% confidence.

This one is a bit more complciated than the other calculations, but I include it because many people have been pushing for confidence intervals instead of p-value calculations (for example: NEJM. However, if you are dredging data, you can reliably find yourself in the 5%. That's my goal!


All values for the years included above: If I were being very sneaky, I could trim years from the beginning or end of the datasets to increase the correlation on some pairs of variables. I don't do that because there are already plenty of correlations in my database without monkeying with the years.

Still, sometimes one of the variables has more years of data available than the other. This page only shows the overlapping years. To see all the years, click on "See what else correlates with..." link above.

Why this works

  1. Data dredging: I have 25,153 variables in my database. I compare all these variables against each other to find ones that randomly match up. That's 632,673,409 correlation calculations! This is called “data dredging.” Instead of starting with a hypothesis and testing it, I instead abused the data to see what correlations shake out. It’s a dangerous way to go about analysis, because any sufficiently large dataset will yield strong correlations completely at random.
  2. Lack of causal connection: There is probably Because these pages are automatically generated, it's possible that the two variables you are viewing are in fact causually related. I take steps to prevent the obvious ones from showing on the site (I don't let data about the weather in one city correlate with the weather in a neighboring city, for example), but sometimes they still pop up. If they are related, cool! You found a loophole.
    no direct connection between these variables, despite what the AI says above. This is exacerbated by the fact that I used "Years" as the base variable. Lots of things happen in a year that are not related to each other! Most studies would use something like "one person" in stead of "one year" to be the "thing" studied.
  3. Observations not independent: For many variables, sequential years are not independent of each other. If a population of people is continuously doing something every day, there is no reason to think they would suddenly change how they are doing that thing on January 1. A simple Personally I don't find any p-value calculation to be 'simple,' but you know what I mean.
    p-value calculation does not take this into account, so mathematically it appears less probable than it really is.
