Orthonormal wavelet expansions are applied to atmospheric surface layer velocity measurements. The effect of intermittent events on the energy spectrum of the inertial subrange is investigated through analysis of wavelet coefficients. The local nature of the orthonormal wavelet transform in physical space makes it possible to identify a relationship between the inertial subrange slope of the lo...

When plane-wave destruction (PWD) is implemented by implicit finite differences, the local slope is estimated by an iterative algorithm. We propose an analytical estimator of the local slope that is based on convergence analysis of the iterative algorithm. Using the analytical estimator, we design a noniterative method to estimate slopes by a three-point PWD filter. Compared with the iterative ...

In order to estimate proper current land price, various factors such as environment, communication, regulation of land use and so on are established by local government. Road slope is one of the land price factors for land form, and land price is corrected by road slope aspect based on road slope for the north. For example, road slope aspect is corrected so that land price face to northern slop...
