Find the extent of a region

Hi everyone,

I have a model where I simulate the time-dependent temperature disturbance T(x,y,t) on a heterogeneous material surface, and I want to know how far in x and y direction the disturbance T>Tm reaches, and how it changes with time, so basically something like
Xm(t)=max(x(T>Tm))
Ym(t)=max(y(T>Tm))

Any hint is appreciated.

After some test I got it work. The method is actually very easy, using the surface maximum to find y*(T>Tm) and x*(T>Tm).
