32 - Ordinate scheme of analysis for cascade waves from time series data

Abstract

Diornal, semidiurnal and quarterdiurnal variations (Cascade waves) are noticed not only in biological systems, but also in environmental mnditiom like the brometric pressure and tide level changes, etc. Quantitative studies of such variations require special type of harmonic analysis upto the fourth harmonic, but excluding the third harmonic. A 32qrdinate scheme is fonnubted for quick results of.such analysis. The scheme is applied in rhythm studies of cell activity in DNA synthesis, as an example. The scheme provides an accurate and lucid means for analysis of cascade waves from time series data.
