Term · Meteorology and atmospheric science · MLC-T-MET-006166

A mathematical window function applied to a finite data series to reduce spectral leakage when performing a Fourier transform. This process tapers the data smoothly to zero at its ends, minimizing discontinuities that can introduce spurious frequencies into the spectrum. It is a common technique in signal processing for meteorological data analysis.
