Hi All,

I'm trying to analyze some time series data and I have run into difficulty. I have decadal sun spot data and I want to separate the very regular periodic function from the trend and noise. I looked into using stl(), but the frequency of the time series data must be greater than 1 for stl(). My data covers a 1000 year interval from 9095 BP to 8095BP and the frequency is, therefore, 0.1 (because the data are decadal). I've tried changing the frequency, but the only frequency that creates a plot of the time series data which matches the raw data is 0.1. Is there anything I can do to the data that will make it more amenable to stl(), or is there another package that I could use for decomposing the signal that does not require that the frequency of the time series to be greater than 1? Thanks,

I do not understand why you are not multiplying by 10 and rounding.
