I am trying to do spectral analysis on a netcdf file.
a. Firstly I want to find out what the major periodicities are in the
data (these may vary from months to several years). I am assuming
they are periodic in longitude. I would like to plot the range of
periods which are present, as a function of pressure and / or height
at a given latitude. I would also like to plot the period present as
a function of latitude at a given height or pressure. There are a lot
of possible routines available, and I am not sure if I am using the
right one(s) (see below).
b. I would also like to be able to find a way to follow a specific
wave as it travels upwards (or downwards), and to plot this. I am not
sure what the best routine to use would be, and how to plot this?.
in order to do a. above, I have tried to incorporate specx_anal into
a script, but I am not sure how I should be inputting the arguments,
and whether this will do what I want if I succeed ?. The error I am
getting is below, and underneath that is the script I have been
trying to use (please bear in mind that my pressure levels apply to
Venus, and the magnitudes are correct).
I am not sure how to do b. above/
Thanks,
Helen.
