Abstract: Computation of blocking areaIn this work, two different methods are applied in order to define and quantify the blocking extension: the center method and the DG method.A new algorithm is used to compute the area within the contour lines determined by one or the other method.Both methods and the algorithm are described below. Center methodWe developed this method to compute the blocking area of the events defined via the WTD, thus, the center method is applied on the composites of the WTD-blocking events.It consists in the following steps.
