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.

本数据集包含以下内容：1. 学位论文（Thesis）；2. 分别针对高级甚高分辨率辐射计（Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer, AVHRR）数据与中分辨率成像光谱仪（Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer, MODIS）数据，实现基于自适应Canny梯度的边缘检测算法以及锋面概率/锋面密度计算的MATLAB代码；3. 澳大利亚热点海域区域的锋面概率（锋面遭遇概率，PFE）与锋面密度（FD）数据（分别对应AVHRR数据与MODIS数据）；4. 曼-肯德尔（Mann-Kendall）趋势检验结果。本研究旨在验证澳大利亚附近两处海洋热点海域内锋面活动的区域变化趋势，并对比两种边缘检测算法的性能表现。
