abstract = {For the analysis of time series data from hydrology, we
used a recently developed technique that is by now widely
known as the Hilbert–Huang transform (HHT). Specifically,
it is designed for nonlinear and nonstationary data. In
contrast to data analysis techniques using the short-time,
windowed Fourier transform or the continuous wavelet
transform, the new technique is empirically adapted to the
data in the following sense. First, an additive
decomposition, called empirical mode decomposition (EMD), of
the data into certain multiscale components is computed.
Second, to each of these components, the Hilbert transform
is applied. The resulting Hilbert spectrum of the modes
provides a localized time–frequency spectrum and
instantaneous (time-dependent) frequencies. In this study,
we applied the HHT to hydrological time series data from the
Upper Rur Catchment Area, mostly German territory, taken
during a period of 20 yr. Our first observation was that a
coarse approximation of the data can be derived by
truncating the EMD representation. This can be used to
better model patterns like seasonal structures. Moreover,
the corresponding time–frequency energy spectrum applied
to the complete EMD revealed seasonal events in a particular
apparent way together with their energy. We compared the
Hilbert spectra with Fourier spectrograms and wavelet
spectra to demonstrate a better localization of the energy
components, which also exhibit strong seasonal components.
The Hilbert energy spectrum of the three measurement
stations appear to be very similar, indicating little local
variability in drainage.},
