Hi Xuguang,
Can you elaborate for us what doesn't work, as well as send us a copy of
the plot? Thanks, Adam

Because the size of sample is very large, for example, 1000-yr nino3 index from a coupled model, and at the same time, the spectra usually concentrated to a narrow area, like 2yr to 50yr, therefore, it's better to use a log coordinate in the x-axis, and in order to illustrate the result well, I want the unit of x-Axis changing from frequency to period. The following code is part of the whole script to do the above mentioned work, however, it doesn't work, I'd like your suggestions. Thanks in advance.
