Objective Algorithm for Detection and Tracking of Extratropical Cyclones in the Southern Hemisphere

In this study, we propose an easy and robust algorithm to identify and track extratropical cyclone events using 850 hPa relative vorticity data, gaussian filter and connected-component labeling technique, which recognize the cyclone as areas under a threshold. Before selecting the events, the algori...
