climatologyMapSoseSalinity¶
An analysis task for comparing salinity at various depths against results from the Southern Ocean State Estimate (SOSE).
Component and Tags:
component: ocean
tags: climatology, horizontalMap, sose, salinity
Configuration Options¶
The following configuration options are available for this task:
[climatologyMapSoseSalinity]
## options related to plotting climatology maps of Antarctic
## salinity at various levels, including the sea floor against
## reference model results and SOSE reanalysis data
# comparison grid(s)
# only the Antarctic really makes sense but lat-lon could technically work.
comparisonGrids = ['antarctic']
# Months or seasons to plot (Jan, Feb, Mar, Apr, May, Jun, Jul, Aug, Sep,
# Oct, Nov, Dec, JFM, AMJ, JAS, OND, ANN)
seasons = ['ANN','JFM','JAS']
# list of depths in meters (positive up) at which to analyze, 'top' for the
# sea surface, 'bot' for the sea floor
depths = ['top', -200, -400, -600, -800, 'bot']
# colormap for model/observations
colormapNameResult = haline
# the type of norm used in the colormap
normTypeResult = linear
# A dictionary with keywords for the SemiLogNorm
normArgsResult = {'vmin': 33.8, 'vmax': 35.0}
# place the ticks automatically by default
# colorbarTicksResult = numpy.linspace(34.2, 35.2, 9)
# colormap for differences
colormapNameDifference = balance
# the type of norm used in the colormap
normTypeDifference = linear
# A dictionary with keywords for the SemiLogNorm
normArgsDifference = {'vmin': -0.5, 'vmax': 0.5}
# place the ticks automatically by default
# colorbarTicksDifference = numpy.linspace(-0.5, 0.5, 9)
- For more details, see:
The option depths is a list of (approximate) depths at which to sample
the salinity field. A value of 'top' indicates the sea
surface (or the ice-ocean interface under ice shelves) while a value of
'bot' indicates the seafloor.
