Re: [ferret_users] Re: FFTA



Dear Yadidya,

Fast Fourier Transform i.e. ffta yields the same unit of the variable as it is the amplitude of the variable for various frequencies. so on y-axis it is celcius to best of my knowledge. But if you make it square i.e. [ffts[var]]^2 then it became Intensity.

Dear Ferreters,

What are the units of y-axis when the function "ffta" is used?
If I'm using the time-series data of temperature, then is it "(celcius)^2" or "(Celcius*sec) ?
