Signal Analysis is a part of geophysics work. It is important in analyse the character of signal or waveform in geophysics. In this paper the earthquake waveform is used as the example. One method to do this is used Short Time Fourier Transform. It adopts the basic concept of Fast Fourier Transform in the short period of time in waveform and at the same moment there is a convolutional process between the waveform and the mother wavelet and then resulting the spectrogram. Finally, the spectrogram will show the power spectrum or the magnitude of the amplitude in each time in the waveform. It relates with the energy of the earthquake. The result including three parameters, they are time, frequency and the spectrogram. It makes easier for the geophysicist to analyse the frequency changing in each time based on the spectrogram colour. Besides that, it can be used to identify the arrival time of P and S wave as the important information in calculate the hypocentre location of the earthquake.
Separation between Regional and Residual anomaly in Gravity and Magnetic data processing is very important to get the best result in geological interpretation. Several method were used to solve this problem like upward continuation and polynomial fitting. With the same principle, 2D FFT is applied by make an interactive tools based on Matlab Language Programming, named “Oasis Ala-Ala”. It adopt the algorithm from software Oasis. It started with make visualization map or the original data, then the map divide into some grids. Each of grid contain gravity or magnetic data. Then it transformed from special to wavenumber domain. After that, it convolve with our own filter matrix. And the last step is inverse it to get the regional and residual anomaly map. However, Matlab is powerful in facilitate this process in the GUI Toolbox. One important thing is the size of gravity and magnetic data. It will improve to Filter matrix size before do inverse process.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
