MATLABis used in a wide range of geoscientific applications, such as for image processing in remote sensing, for generating and processing digital elevation models, and for analyzing time series. This book introduces methods of data analysis intheearth sciencesusing MATLAB, such as basic statistics for univariate, bivariate,and multivariate datasets, timeseries analysis, signal processing, spatial and directional dataanalysis, and image analysis. The text includes numerous examples demonstrating how MATLAB can be used on data sets fromtheearth sciences. The supplementary electronic material (available online through Springer Link)containsrecipes that include all the MATLAB commands featured in the book andexample data.
