AN IMPROVED METHOD TO DERIVE PERIODS OF CYCLIC PHENOMENA

We present two simple improvements to the method described by Jurkevich (1971) to derive periods of cyclic phenomena and which is particularly useful when large numbers of observations are available. An example of the results of both the original and the improved methods is provided in Figures 1 and...

Description
Summary:We present two simple improvements to the method described by Jurkevich (1971) to derive periods of cyclic phenomena and which is particularly useful when large numbers of observations are available. An example of the results of both the original and the improved methods is provided in Figures 1 and 2, respectively.
