| Publisher Description: This textbook provides a concise introduction to geophysical data processing - many of the techniques associated with the general field of time series analysis - for advanced students, researchers, and professionals. The treatment begins with calculus before transitioning to discrete time series via the sampling theorem, discussions of aliasing, the use of complex sinusoids, the development of the discrete Fourier transform from the Fourier series, and an overview of linear digital filter types and descriptions. Aimed at senior undergraduate and graduate students in geophysics, environmental science, and engineering with no previous background in linear algebra, probability, statistics or Fourier transforms, this textbook draws scenarios and datasets from across the world of geophysics, and shows how data processing techniques can be applied to real-world problems using detailed examples, illustrations, and exercises. Exercises are mostly computational in nature and may be completed using MATLAB or a computing environment with similar capabilities. |
