Employing the Hilbert–Huang Transform to analyze observed natural complex signals: Calm wind meandering cases

In this study we analyze natural complex signals employing the Hilbert–Huang spectral analysis. Specifically, low wind meandering meteorological data are decomposed into turbulent and non turbulent components. These non turbulent movements, responsible for the absence of a preferential direction of the horizontal wind, provoke negative lobes in the meandering autocorrelation functions. The meandering characteristic time scales (meandering...
