Radial correlation between different layers of model rum, Chebyshev reparameterization
Radial correlation matrix (mid plot), x and y axis indicate the depth levels for which the total linear correlation is calculated.
Contour invervals are 0.2. The left plot shows r for constant
depth bracket half-widths of from 100 km to 500 km as a function of mid-bracket depth.
The right hand plot shows Delta z, the corresponding depth bracket width of contourlines of r of 0.85, 0.75, 0.65 if we were able to track a continuous contour.
The model was reparameterized radially on Chebyshev polynomials of order 20,
the average variance reduction with respect to the original model coeffficients was
98.02%.
Note that some models suffer from ringing (over-fitting) toward the boundaries, this should not be interpreted as real structure.
