Does anyone know of a test for stationarity of a time series, or like all ordination techniques it is a qualitative assessment of a quantitative result. Books, papers, etc. suggestions welcome. thanks Stephen -- Let's not spend our time and resources thinking about things that are so little or so large that all they really do for us is puff us up and make us feel like gods.

NOTE: I will provide data if necessary, but I didn't want clutter everyones mailbox All: I have a time series with level and temperature data for 11 sites for each of three bases. I will have to do this more than once is what I am saying here. OK, The time series are zoo objects with index values in chron format. The problem is that the date and times should be at even 15 min intervals,

I have a time series object with two columns. a <- ts(x, frequency=1/15) I would like to split this into two time series of the same length (they are the same number of observations lined up time for time already). -- Let's not spend our time and resources thinking about things that are so little or so large that all they really do for us is puff us up and make us feel like gods.

#this is a daily series of precipitation data. I would like to condense it into weekly means.

#Is there a way to break the below zoo object into non-NA data frames algorithmically #this is a small example of a much larger problem. #It is really no even necessary to have the continuous chunks #end up as zoo objects but it is important to have them end #up with the index column. #thanks for all of your help in advance, and #if you need anything else please let me know library(zoo) ind.

Hello, I propose two small changes to spec.pgram to get modest speedup when dealing with input (x) having multiple columns. With plot = FALSE, I commonly see ~10-20% speedup, for a two column input matrix and the speedup increases for more columns with a maximum close to 45%. In the function as it currently exists, only the upper right triangle of pgram is necessary and pgram is not returned by

Solved. I tried to create a minimal example, but my script is too complicated to just cut out lines (too many dependencies). Instead of it, I sketch my idea. I do not say it is the nicest solution, but it works as I wanted. The first five rows of my data-matrix: > data_svd$u[1:5,] [,1] [,2] [,3] [,4] [,5] [,6] [,7] 25.12333 -0.05845695

Is there a way to write and analysis to disk and then reconstruct the whole thing back into an object. wavCWT() #wmtsa package I am running out of memory on my computer and I was wondering if there was a way to iterate through this process (as it is an iterative process anyway- it just stores the whole thing to memory).

I have a suggestion for kernapply for ts objects. When we choose the option circular=F, the returned series don't have the correct dates. The removed dates are all at the beginning instead of half at the beginning and half at the end. It is particularly useful when we need to smooth the series (or remove a trend using a filter) before estimating a model (like in macroeconomics) or simply
