2019-20 Honours project - Patterns and trends of frontal activity in Australian marine hotspots

This record contains:1. Thesis2. The MATLAB codes of the adaptive Canny gradient-based edge detection algorithm and calculating frontal probability/density (for AVHRR data and MODIS data separately). 3. Frontal probability (probability of frontal encounter, PFE) and frontal density (FD) data over Australian hotspot regions (for AVHRR data and MODIS data separately) 4. Results of the Mann-Kendall trend testThe purpose of this study is to verify the regional trends of frontal activity within the two marine hotspots near Australia and compare the performance of the two edge detection algorithms.本记录包含：1. 论文；2. 基于自适应Canny梯度的边缘检测算法及锋面概率/密度计算的MATLAB代码（分别适用于AVHRR数据和MODIS数据）；3. 澳大利亚热点区域的锋面概率（锋面遭遇概率，PFE）和锋面密度（FD）数据（分别适用于AVHRR数据和MODIS数据）；4. Mann-Kendall趋势检验结果。本研究旨在验证澳大利亚附近两个海洋热点区域内锋面活动的区域趋势，并比较两种边缘检测算法的性能。
