Dear Colleague,

 

The purpose of this message is to announce a session at the European

Geophysical Union meeting in Vienna, 24--29 April 2005, entitled

 

   "Wavelet and time-frequency analysis in the earth sciences"

 

The session is being organized by J.M. Lilly and S.C. Olhede. A detailed

description of the session, preliminary list of solicited speakers, and

some additional information are provided below.

 

Wavelet analysis and related approaches provide powerful new tools for

attacking problems involving statistical nonstationarity and coherent

structures, both in time series and in two or three dimensional fields.

Our goal is to bring together researchers involved with the development

of new mathematical and statistical methods with others whose interests

require, and provide the impetus for, such new approaches.  We would

like to encourage colleagues in either of these two categories to submit

abstracts.

 

Abstract submission is now open, with a deadline of January 21, about

two months from now.

 

Please feel free to forward this to other interested researchers.

 

Sincerely,

 

Jonathan Lilly  <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, Universite Pierre et Marie Curie

Sofia Olhede <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, Imperial College London

Session information for NP4.05

 

Wavelet and time-frequency analysis in the earth sciences

 

   Convener: J.M. Lilly      Co-convener: S.C. Olhede

   Programme:  Nonlinear Processes in Geophysics

 

Many natural processes of great interest are neither periodic nor

stationary. Wavelet and time-frequency (or time-scale) analysis therefore

holds much potential for earth scientists. Despite the vast array of new

methods which have emerged over the past decade, there is substantial

scope for broader application of these methods to real-world problems,

as well as for the development of further mathematical tools to address

outstanding physical questions.

 

The purpose of this session is to survey the most promising methods for

the earth sciences, and to highlight specific examples of practical

applications. Several areas of special interest are:

 

  --- nonstationary stochastic modelling

  --- extraction of signals immersed in noise

  --- wavelet decompositions in two and three dimensions

  --- multiple-window methods.

 

Statistical considerations are particularly encouraged.
