Reviews
'This textbook is an excellent resource for students and researchers interested in time series and spectral analyses for a variety of geoscience problems, from seismology to climate change. It provides the theory behind these topics, with examples, in a methodical and easy to understand way, combined with ready-to-use computer programs.' Shimon Wdowinski, Florida International University
'This is a perfect book for researchers wanting to know how to perform time series analysis using the Fast Fourier Transform. The examples from Earth sciences and the R codes are especially useful for young scientists and newcomers in the field of time series analysis.' Francois G. Schmitt, Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique (CNRS), Paris
