About the journal
Advances in Geophysics, Volume 40 systematically compares many of the currently used statistical approaches to time series analysis and modeling to evaluate each method's robustness and application to geophysical datasets.This volume tackles the age-old problem of how to evaluate the relative roles of deterministic versus stochastic processes (signal rs. noise) in their observations. The book introduces the fundamentals in sections titled "l.2 What is a Time Series?" and "1.3 How is a Time Series Quantified?," before diving into Spectral Analysis, Semivariograms, Rescaled-Range Analysis, and Wavelet Analysis. The second half of the book applies self-affine analysis to a number of geophysical rime series such as historical temperature records, drought hazard assessment, sedimentation in the context of hydrocarbon bearing strata, and variability of the Earth's magnetic field.
This volume explores in detail one of the main components of noise, that of long-range persistence or memory. The first chapter is a broad summary of theory and techniques of long-range persistence in time series; the second chapter is the application of long-range persistence to a variety of geophysical time series.
