Short definition of Detrending time series
Detrending typically refers to removing the low-frequency content of the time series

This is the common definition for Detrending time series, but other definitions maybe discussed within the wiki.

In the context of analysing turbulence observations, the resulting detrended signal should contain mostly contributions from turbulence and surface waves (if present). However, frame interference (wakes), vibrations and measurement noise may also contaminate the detrended signal.


Measured velocities at 4 Hz from an Acoustic-Doppler Velocimeters have been detrended using three different techniques
