Topography of alpha power under eyes open (top) and eyes closed (bottom) conditions as a function of transformation (Cz, average (AR), or linked mastoid (LM) reference or current source density (CSD) transformation) from a sample of over 2400 recordings. Power values at each site represent natural-log transformed values; thus negative numbers represent mean power values less than one. Each transformation is scaled independently, but within each transformation, eyes open and closed data are plotted on the same scale. Only the CSD transformation contains occipital alpha to occipital leads, whereas the other three montages show reflected alpha at frontal regions, visible most clearly by a comparison of frontal leads under eyes closed compared to eyes open recordings.
