[ncl-talk] How to get explained variance from spectra

[Ehsan Taghizadeh]

 Dear Lyndz,I'm interested about your previous problem with this script which was:fatal:Plus: Dimension size, for dimension number 0, of operands does not match, can't continue
fatal:["Execute.c":8637]:Execute: Error occurred at or near line 39 in file spectral_mean_plot.ncl

I would like to know how did you fix it.Sincerely,Ehsan

As notes in the specx_anal documentation: 
-====

These spectra have been normalized so that the area under the curve:

(spcx(0)+spcx(N/2-1))*(df/2) +SUM{spcx(1:N/2-2)*df}
equals the variance of the detrended series, wheredf=(1/N)=frequency spacing.
The units are variance/(unit frequency interval).

====

You know the frequencies corresponding to  5-to-10 days.




5-to-10day variance:   var_510 = SUM{spcx('f5->f10')*df} 





fractional_variance = var_510/total_variance

Dear NCL-experts,
I have a sample data that I attached here and below is the script that I used to plot the spectra.
I found significant peaks between 5-10 (days).
I would like to ask how to estimate the fractional variance of total rainfall variability explained by this 5-10 days ISO. Im not sure if this can be estimated from the spectra. If not, any suggestions on how to do this NCL?
