Ocean bottom seismometer tilt rotation correction code
This is a MATLAB function for tilt correction of OBS data using a simple rotation of the vertical and two horizontals. It minimizes the energy on the vertical component via optimization. To run the code requires the optimization toolbox (function fminsearch). Inputs are  X(east), Y(north) and Z(vertical), output are Znew (tilt corrected Z), Xnew (rotated X), Ynew (rotated Y),
angy (azimuthal rotation in degrees) and vrt (tilt angle from vertical in
degrees).
