Invitation:

Prior to the 2015 NCK days icebreaker, OpenEarth.nl organizes a hands-on sprint session to explain how to access and visualize some great open access core-description and grain size datasets of the Dutch coast:

Yoou You can access subsets these files with the Matlab netCDF package called ncread and with the python package netcdf4-python, see our Matlab example and

python example.

TNO grain size maps

A Matlab simple example how to make a publication quality figure is given here

We used this image as Fig. 8 in our 2011 paper Mechanisms controlling the intra-annual mesoscale variability of SST and SPM in the southern North Sea.

Sedimentatlas waddensea

A second Matlab example is a dataset used for Fig 9 in our 2008 paper Modeling large-scale cohesive sediment transport affected by small-scale biological activity. Here's an exmaple how to work with these data, find more script in
