On the Use of Geometric Moments to Examine the Continuum of Sudden Stratospheric Warmings
The polar winter stratospheric vortex is a coherent structure that undergoes different types of deformation that can be revealed by the geometric invariant moments. Three moments are used-the aspect ratio, the centroid latitude, and the area of the vortex based on stratospheric data from the 40-yr E...
