oceanspy.plot.TS_diagram

oceanspy.plot.TS_diagram(od, Tlim=None, Slim=None, dens=None, meanAxes=None, colorName=None, plotFreez=True, ax=None, cmap_kwargs=None, contour_kwargs=None, clabel_kwargs=None, cutout_kwargs=None, **kwargs)[source]

Plot temperature-salinity diagram.

Parameters:
od: OceanDataset

oceandataset used to plot.

Tlim: array_like with 2 elements

Temperature limits on the y axis. If None, uses min and max values.

Slim: array_like with 2 elements

Salinity limits on the x axis. If None, uses min and max values.

dens: xarray.DataArray

DataArray with densities used for isopycnals. Must have coordinates (Temp, S). In None, dens is inferred from Temp and S.

meanAxes: 1D array_like, str, or None

List of axes over which to apply weighted mean. If None, don’t average.

colorName: str, None

Name of the variable to use to color (e.g., Temp). If None, uses plot insted of scatter (much faster)

plotFreez: bool

If True, plot freezing line in blue.

ax: matplotlib.pyplot.axes

If None, uses the current axis.

cmap_kwargs: dict

Keyword arguments for the colormap (same used by xarray)

contour_kwargs: dict

Keyword arguments for matplotlib.pytplot.contour() (isopycnals)

clabel_kwargs: dict

Keyword arguments for matplotlib.pytplot.clabel() (isopycnals)

cutout_kwargs: dict

Keyword arguments for oceanspy.subsample.cutout()

**kwargs:

If colorName is None: Kewyword arguments for matplotlib.pytplot.plot() Otherwise, kewyword arguments for matplotlib.pytplot.scatter()

Returns:
ax: matplotlib.pyplot.axes

Axes object.
