الوصف: ATRACKCS is a Python package for the automated detection and tracking of Mesoscale convective systems (MCS). MCS are organized cloud clusters that produce regional rainfall and feature vertical development penetrating the mid-upper troposphere. The spatio-temporal characterization of MCS contributed to reducing the vulnerability to severe precipitation events, as well as understanding weather and regional climate. This Python package is a potential tool for characterizing spatio-temporal distribution and evolution of MCS and is intended for researchers and students interested in exploring MCS dynamics. ATRACKCS provides a set of functions designed for a workflow analysis that includes the detection and characterization of MCS, as well as the integration in tracks, allowing detailed monitoring of the MCS life cycle both in space and time. The algorithm uses brightness temperature (Tb) and precipitation (P) coming from public satellite data and can operate with Tb as the only input variable or associating precipitation features. The algorithm parameterization can be adapted to the needs of the MCS detection, as the user is allowed to define the thresholds of Tb and P. Access to software by using GitHub and OpenAire. Thank you very much for using it. We look forward to your comments in the GitHub repository.
