Satellite measurements of the Zhejiang-Fujian coastal front in the East China Sea with an improved front-following algorithm

The Zhejiang-Fujian coastal front is an important front in the East China Sea. The frontal parameters have been measured using an improved front-following algorithm with Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer (AVHRR) data. The Frontal parameters including position width mean SST SST difference and gradient of the front have been retrieved.
