Mustafa,

I have been working with these kind of statistical relationships, and I 
find that using spatial Pearson cross-correlation is very helpful to 
analyze  hydroclimatological associations. You can see this abstract:
http://hydrologydays.colostate.edu/Abstracts_09/Molina_poster_abs.pdf
Additional to CCA packages in R, if you feel the correlation maps and 
information that I mention in that abstract can be useful for your work, 
I will be pleased to give you more details.
Jose.
