Automated detection of EUV Polar Coronal Holes during Solar Cycle 23
TL;DR: In this article, a method for automated detection of polar coronal holes is presented, called perimeter tracing, which uses a series of 171, 195, and 304 A full disk images from the Extreme ultraviolet Imaging Telescope (EIT) on SOHO over solar cycle 23 to measure the perimeter of polar holes as they appear on the limbs.
