Decomposing velocity measurements: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 14:22, 30 November 2021

The quality-controlled velocities can be detrended before being further analysed to determine mean flow past the sensor and surface wave statistics. These quantities are necessary for later choosing the appropriate inertial subrange model for spectral fitting. Quality-controlled velocities may also need to be detrended before applying various despiking.

-Measurements are typically collected in the following two ways:
-* continuously, or in such long bursts that they can be considered continuous
-* short bursts that are typically  at most 2-3x the expected largest [[Time and length scales of turbulence|turbulence time scales]] (e.g., 10 min in ocean environments)
