Using Moving Variance Method to Detect Ocean Currents from Space
This research based on using of moving variance method is directed on detection of global ocean currents and other dynamic processes using multi satellite data. This method is based on the statistical treatment of seasonal composites of sea surface temperature and phytoplankton pigments concentration satellite imagery. Digital map of ocean currents and oceanic frontal features was generated using moving variance method. Special software using IDL language for statistical treatment was developed.
