[ncl-talk] Fwd: problem with specx_anal (ntim x nlat x nlon)

[Lyndz]

Dear NCL-experts,

Just a follow up on my post earlier.

I tried the following:


;************************************************
; calculate mean spectrum spectrum and lag1 auto cor
;************************************************

ntim = 6954
nlat = 220
nlon = 220
nseg = 49
nlen  = ntim/nseg
minlat = -14.875
maxlat = 39.875
minlon = 90.125
maxlon = 144.875
spcavg = onedtond(rain,(/nseg,nlat,nlon/))
printVarSummary(spcavg)
spcavg = 0.0
r1zsum = 0.0

dm = 1
sm = 1
pct = 0.10
r1zsum = 0.0

mlon=220
nlat=220

 do nl=0,nlat-1
   do ml=0,mlon-1
     do n=0,nseg-1
       dof    =
specx_anal(rain(latitude|nl:nl,longitude|ml:ml,time|:),d,sm,pct)      ;
current segment spc
       spcavg = spcavg + dof at spcx                ; sum spc of each segment
       r1     = dof at xlag1                        ; extract segment lag-1
       r1zsum = r1zsum  + 0.5*(log((1+r1)/(1-r1))) ; sum the Fischer Z
    end do
   end do    ; ml
end do       ; nl


It gives the following error:

ncl 64>  do nl=0,nlat-1
ncl 65>    do ml=0,mlon-1
ncl 66>      do n=0,nseg-1
ncl 67>        dof    =
specx_anal(rain(latitude|nl:nl,longitude|ml:ml,time|:),d,sm,pct)      ;
current segment spc
ncl 68>        spcavg = spcavg + dof at spcx                ; sum spc of each
segment
ncl 69>        r1     = dof at xlag1                        ; extract segment
lag-1
ncl 70>        r1zsum = r1zsum  + 0.5*(log((1+r1)/(1-r1))) ; sum the
Fischer Z
ncl 71>     end do
ncl 72>    end do    ; ml
ncl 73> end do       ; nl


*fatal:Number of dimensions in parameter (0) of (specx_anal) is (3), (1)
dimensions were expected fatal:["Execute.c":8635]:Execute: Error occurred
at or near line 67*


Any suggestion on how to do this correctly in NCL?

Dear NCL-experts,

I would like to do a spectral analysis on a *ntim x nlat x lon* data as
indicated in example 3 from this page:
https://www.ncl.ucar.edu/Document/Functions/Built-in/specx_anal.shtml

*Specifically, I would like to get the mean spectra so that the final
output will have meanspectra x lat x lon*


*So far, I have the following:*

  ufile  = addfile("anom_rain_sm_1951-2007_jjas.nc","r")       ; open
netcdf file
  rain = ufile->rAnom_sm(:,:,:)

  printVarSummary(rain)            ;[time | 6954] x [latitude | 220] x
[longitude | 220]

  d   = 0
  sm  = 1         ; periodogram
  pct = 0.10


;************************************************
; calculate mean spectrum spectrum and lag1 auto cor
;************************************************

ntim = 6954
nlat = 220
nlon = 220

nseg = 49
nlen  = ntim/nseg

spcavg = new (ntim/141, typeof(rain))
printVarSummary(spcavg)
spcavg = new ( ntim/2, typeof(rain))
spcavg = 0.0
r1zsum = 0.0

     do n=0,nseg-1
      dof    =
specx_anal(rain(latitude|nl:nl,longitude|ml:ml,time|:),d,sm,pct)      ;
current segment spc
      spcavg = spcavg + dof at spcx                ; sum spc of each segment
      r1     = dof at xlag1                        ; extract segment lag-1
      r1zsum = r1zsum  + 0.5*(log((1+r1)/(1-r1)) ; sum the Fischer Z
    end do
   r1z  = r1zsum/nseg                           ; average r1z
   r1   = (exp(2*r1z)-1)/(exp(2*r1z)+1)            ; transform back
                                                                        ;
this is the mean r1
   spcavg  = spcavg/nseg                                ; average spectrum

*Questions:*
 (1) How do I loop this across all the gridpoints? I am having a problem
with the looping and saving the spectra in spcavg(ntim,nlat,nlon). Any
suggestions on how to do this in NCL? The example in the page is incomplete.


I'll appreciate any help on this.
