Finding largest peaks in a graph

Hello!
I am writing a little program to plot out the intensities of split spectral lines from a Zeeman experiment.
I get graphs that look like this:

I want to be able to find the major peaks of this plot. I've been using
[pks,locs]=findpeaks(smo);
to find the peaks, but this function finds all of the tiny insignificant peaks. I was thinking of thresholding intensity (i.e. ignoring peaks that are below 5 on the y axis for instance), but I wonder if there is a cleaner way to do this.
Thank you!

As explained in the help, set the 'MINPEAKHEIGHT' property to 5:
[peakValues, indexesOfPeaks] = findpeaks(smo, 'MINPEAKHEIGHT', 5);
or if you really want to set smo to zero below some threshold value, such as 7, you can do this first:
smo(smo<7) = 0;
[peakValues, indexesOfPeaks] = findpeaks(smo, 'MINPEAKHEIGHT', 5);
though I don't think that should be necessary with the data you've shown if you use the MinPeakHeight parameter.
