Abstract
Demonstrates the utility of the Gabor expansion as a new tool in geophysical research. The Gabor expansion provides good time-frequency (or space-wavenumber) localization and is ideally suited to represent nonstationary processes. The properties of this tool are demonstrated by expanding an FM-chirp waveform, and azimuth cuts taken from two different SAR ocean images. The effects of filtering in Gabor phase space are also investigated
