Main information
A Simple Method to Automatically Detect Oceanic Eddies
2009
Ed09
This paper presents a simple method to detect oceanic eddies in infrared satellite images. The method finds structures that resemble circles or ellipses in binary images. One of its best features is the reduced dependence of its results on the values of input parameters. Its effectiveness is demonstrated for the Iberian Peninsula off-shore region where some methods previously reported on scientific literature are shown to fail. Even though the algorithm effectiveness is demonstrated only for the Iberian Peninsula region its general formulation allows its application to other regions of the world.
