Detrending time series

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.

Measured velocities at 4 Hz from an Acoustic-Doppler Velocimeters have been detrended using three different techniques. Empirical modal decomposition (EMD) , linear trend, and a 2nd order low-pass Butterworth filter. A cut-off period of 10 min was targeted by both the filter and EMD

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.
