This article compiles some useful matlab samples to use with the MOHID converted netcdf files.

Netcdf MOHID vector plot

Sample code for the Portuguese coast application. It integrates several layers of the horizontal velocity. And plots and saves it.

depth = nc_varget(file,'depth')

siz = [length(lon)-1 length(lat)-1];

lat2d = zeros(siz);

for i=1:siz(1) 
for j=1:siz(2)
   lon2d(i,j) = lon(i); 
   lat2d(i,j) = lat(j);
end
end

SumVelY = 0;

for k=35:42  

   Vel_xk = nc_varget(file,'Vel_X',[k 1 1],[1 116 176]);    
   SumVelX = SumVelX + Vel_xk * (depth(k+1) - depth(k)) / (depth(43) - depth(36));    

   Vel_yk = nc_varget(file,'Vel_Y',[k 1 1],[1 116 176]);    
   SumVelY = SumVelY + Vel_yk * (depth(k+1) - depth(k)) / (depth(43) - depth(36));

end
