How to find correlation between time-series of different units?












1












$begingroup$


I have 3 time-series data.




  1. NDVI(normalized difference vegetation index) mean

  2. Precipitation

  3. Temperature


    All of these have their own unit.

    Now I want to find similarity/correlation between NDVI and precipitation,
    NDVI and temperature. Basically, my aim is to find "NDVI is more correlated with precipitation or temperature".
    Should I normalize precipitation and temperature to NDVI values?
