DDT {IRISSeismic}

Apply demean, detrend, cosine taper

Description

The DDT method of Trace objects returns a new Trace where data in the @data slot have been modified. This is typically required before peforming any kind of spectral analysis on the seismic trace.

Usage

DDT(x, demean, detrend, taper)

Arguments

x

a Trace object

demean

logical specifying whether to deman (default=TRUE)

detrend

logical specifying whether to detrend (default=TRUE)

taper

proportion of the signal to be tapered at each end (default=0.1)

Details

Use taper=0 for no tapering.

Value

A new Trace object is returned.
