Basic Plotting#

Learning Goals#

  • Making a lat-lon plot

  • Making a zonal plot

  • Making a lat-height plot

Exercise 1: lat-lon plot#

Plot global lat/lon of surface temperature

Exercise 2: Making a zonal plot#

Plot zonal mean of short wave cloud forcing

Exercise 3: Making a lat-height plot#

Plot temperature zonal mean with vertical levels

Advanced Plotting#

Learning Goals#

  • analysis of native output

Exercise 1: CAM7 native grid analysis#

Examples of simple analysis and plotting that can be done with native CAM7 output on the spectral element cubed-sphere grid, which is the workhorse configuration for CAM7 and CESM3.
