PublicationSNR: Final DML and WAIS spectra

In EarthSystemDiagnostics/proxysnr: Separate Signal and Noise in Climate Proxy Records

Description

Internal function to produce the final DML and WAIS spectra (signal, noise, SNR) used for Figs. (3) and (4) in Münch and Laepple (2018). The DML spectra are a combination of the results from the DML1 and DML2 data sets.

Usage

PublicationSNR(spec, dml.knit.f = 0.1, df.log = 0.125)

Arguments

spec	output from WrapSpectralResults for DML and WAIS data.
dml.knit.f	frequency at which to combine the spectra from the DML1 and DML2 data sets (defaults to 1/10 yr^(-1)); DML2 spectra are used for lower frequencies than dml.knit.f, DML1 for the higher frequencies.
df.log	width of Gaussian kernel in logarithmic frequency units for additional smoothing for visual purposes; NULL suppresses smoothing.

Value

A list with the components dml and wais, where each is a list containing three elements of class "spec" and one numeric vector:

signal:

the signal spectrum.

noise:

the noise spectrum.

snr:

the frequency-dependent signal-to-noise ratio.

f.cutoff:

a two-element vector with the index and value of the cutoff frequency from constraining the diffusion correction.
