43 Basic Fourier Analysis Assume some time series x(t) that includes various quasi-periodic processes How can we compare activity at different frequencies or filter activity in a specific frequency band from the rest of the signal?
44 Fourier Analysis Used to find out how much activity in a given frequency is found in a time series, and to filter for that activity Basic underlying principle: sin(2πft + ϕ) = asin2πft + bcos2πft

52 X(µ) = 1 T T x(t)exp i 2π(µ 1)(t 1) t=1 ( ) Fourier Transform of x The power spectrum is just X(µ)X(µ)* Often a signal is buried in noise. To emphasize significant signals, smoothing the spectrum is appropriate. This can include breaking the dataset up into many subsets, calculating the spectra of each subset, and averaging the results.

56 Red noise White noise Blue noise How to distinguish noise from signal?
57 Some Definitions DFT, FFT, power, complex conjugate Frequency angular Wavenumber
58 Resolution of a Spectrum: Assume a time series length T days Maximum period resolved is length T Minimum period resolved is 2 days Periods resolved are T, T/2, T/3,, 2
59 Tropical Convection Tropical convection varies in space and time, so a spectrum characterizing it should include both zonal wavenumber and frequency. Break the dataset up into many overlapping time segments Take dft for a segment in space, then transform the result again in time. Average power over all segments
60 Symmetry of a Power Spectrum A power spectrum is redundant Second half reflects the first half Lowest Frequencies occur at the beginning and end, with highest at center Wavenumber-frequency spectra actually have four quadrants
