Spanish term

área bajo el espectro

Spanish to English Tech/Engineering Mathematics & Statistics Coastal engineering
This is part of a long text by the government agency, Puertos de Estado, in Spain. It describes climate agents that can affect ports and breakwaters. Here is the context:

Si u´(z, t) es un proceso aleatorio gaussiano de media cero, las amplitudes siguen una distribución de Rayleigh cuyo descriptor estadístico está relacionado con el** área bajo el espectro** frecuencial de la serie temporal.

under the frequency spectrum

You shouldn't split 'espctro' from 'frecuencial' - it's a single term.

el** área bajo el espectro** frecuencial de la serie temporal
-->
rea under the frequency spectrum corresponding to the time series

It refers to time-frequency transforms - maybe Fourier, maybe some other genuis.

Oops - still haven't got used to this new keyboard:
'espectro', 'area' and 'genius', of course (the latter is what's most lacking here today, methinks...)

area under the spectral frequency

the ref. is not referred to the particular subject of climate, but I believe the terms can be used in your context.

Peer comment(s):

neutral Jennifer Levey : A 'spectral frequency' is a single frequency within a spectrum (like a singloe colour in the rainbow), and as such cannot have an area underneath it since that 'area' would have zero width.
