Set structure function processing parameters

These parameters must be set prior to applying the structure function techniques to your ADCP measurements:

1. Set evaluation spatial scale. It is dependent on:
   • bin size and beam range (to ensure a sufficient number of data points)
   • length scales for isotropic turbulence
2. delta b calculation
   1. determine the percentage of instances in a burst when delta b can be calculated for separation distance delta r at a location r
   2. distribution of delta b / delta b squared values – the impact of outliers and resilience of mean
