Plot individual components
It is also possible to extract other inferred quantities from your time-series decomposition object. The following code shows you how to extract the observed, trend and noise (or residual, resid) components.
observed = decomposition.observed
trend = decomposition.trend
residuals = decomposition.resid
You can then use the extracted components and plot them individually.
The decomposition object you created in the last exercise is available in your workspace.

Exercise instructions
- Extract the
trendcomponent from thedecompositionobject. - Plot this trend component.
Hands-on interactive exercise
Have a go at this exercise by completing this sample code.
# Extract the trend component
trend = ____.____
# Plot the values of the trend
ax = ____.____(figsize=(12, 6), fontsize=6)
# Specify axis labels
ax.set_xlabel('Date', fontsize=10)
ax.set_title('Seasonal component the CO2 time-series', fontsize=10)
plt.show()
