This second edition is an intensively revised and updated version of the book MATLAB® and Design Recipes for Earth Sciences. It aims to introduce students to the typical course followed by a data analysis project in earth sciences. A project usually involves searching relevant literature, reviewing and ranking published books and journal articles,...
The results of a project are typically presented in three formats; as posters, talks, and papers. A poster is collection of figures, photos, and text printed on a large sheet of paper that is presented on a poster-board in a large hall in a conference building. During poster sessions the presenter of the poster can interact personally with the peop...
Oral and poster presentations are typically held at conferences or workshops, with a limited number of attendees. Making posters and presentations available online, as either PDF files or videos, increases the potential size of the audience. The most effective way to present scientific information is, however, to publish it as a journal article, th...
Computer graphics are stored and processed as either vector or raster data. Most of the data types that were encountered in the previous chapter were vector data, i.e., points, lines and polygons. Drainage networks, the outlines of geologic units, sampling locations, and topographic contours are all examples of vector data. In this chapter, coastli...
Many scientific publications now include multimedia material, either as an electronic supplement or embedded within publication files; chapter deals mainly with such embedded material. Multimedia objects can be integrated into web pages since a very long time. The HyperText Markup Language (HTML), developed in 1990 by Tim Berners-Lee at CERN and no...
The results of a project are typically presented in three formats: posters, talks, and papers. A poster is collection of graphics, photos, and text printed on a large sheet of paper that is presented on a poster-board in a large hall in a conference building.
MATLAB® is a software package developed by The MathWorks, Inc., founded by Cleve Moler, Jack Little and Steve Bangert in 1984, which has its headquarters in Natick, Massachusetts (http://www.mathworks.com).
This chapter deals with electronic data resources, searching for specific data, transferring data between servers and computers
This chapter is on searching relevant literature, reviewing and ranking published books and journal articles, and extracting relevant information in the form of text, data, or graphs.
In Chaps. 2 and 3 we extracted text and tables from journal articles, webpages, and online data bases. In Chaps. 5 and 6 we then created various simple line graphs, bar plots, and block diagrams with MATLAB.
This book is based on an undergraduate course taught at the University of Potsdam in Germany (http://uni-potsdam.de), as was also the case with its sister book MATLAB Recipes for Earth Sciences–4rd Edition (Trauth 2015).
Most data in earth sciences are spatially distributed, either as vector data, (points, lines, polygons) or as raster data (gridded topography). Vector data are generated by digitizing map objects such as drainage networks or outlines of lithologic units. Raster data can be obtained directly from a satellite sensor output, but gridded data can also,...
In this chapter we demonstrate advanced two-dimensional visualization techniques in the form of graphical displays of the types of data typically encountered in earth sciences, using MATLAB.
The overall aim of the book is to introduce students to the typical course followed by a data analysis project in earth sciences. A project usually involves searching relevant literature, reviewing and ranking published books and journal articles, extracting relevant information from the literature in the form of text, data, or graphs, searching an...
This book is based on an undergraduate course taught at the University of Potsdam in Germany (http://uni-potsdam.de), as was also the case with its sister book MATLAB Recipes for Earth Sciences–3rd Edition (Trauth 2010). The objective of this course was to guide students through the typical progression of a scientific project. Such projects usually...

Computer graphics are stored and processed as either vector or raster data. Most of the data types that were encountered in the previous chapter were vector data, i.e., points, lines and polygons. Images are generally presented as raster data, i.e., as a 2D array of color intensities. Images are everywhere in geosciences. Field geologists use aeria...
In Chaps. 2 and 3 we extracted text and tables from journal articles, web-pages, and online data bases. In Chaps. 5 and 6 we then created various simple line graphs, bar plots, and block diagrams with MATLAB. In Chap. 7 we processed images, in particular satellite imagery. Both the vector graphics created in Chap. 5 and the raster graphics generate...
This chapter deals with electronic data resources, searching for specific data, transferring data between servers and computers (clients), and data storage. Section 3.2 introduces the systems available for data storage, starting with a historical retrospective and ending with the most recent storage systems such as DVDs, CDs, and flash memory. Sect...
MATLAB® is a software package developed by The MathWorks Inc., founded by Cleve Moler, Jack Little and Steve Bangert in 1984, which has its headquarters in Natick, Massachusetts (http://mathworks.com).

In this chapter we demonstrate advanced two-dimensional visualization techniques in the form of graphical displays of the types of data typically encountered in earth sciences, using MATLAB. The first example displays graphically a temperature and snow accumulation time series for the last 20,000 years from the GISP2 ice core data presented by R.B....
This chapter is on searching relevant literature, reviewing and ranking published books and journal articles, and extracting relevant information in the form of text, data, or graphs. In this context, the focus of our book is on Internet resources and literature in an electronic format such as the Adobe Portable Document Format (PDF), rather than o...

... Initial attempts were made to quantify the step timing and size using a variety of change point detection methods (Beaulieu et al., 2012). Using the Mann-Whitney test and basic differential methods (Trauth et al., 2018) showed false detect issues typical of the 'change point detection problem' (Gallagher et al., 2013). A more flexible and robust method used the MATLAB® maximum likelihood change point function. ...
