plotFluidDecompositionMultipanel

Plot a multipanel decomposition of the fluid state (wave vs geostrophic).

---

Declaration

 fig = plotFluidDecompositionMultipanel(self,options)

Parameters

• self WVDiagnostics object
• visible (optional) Figure visibility (default: “on”)
• iTime Time index to display; when provided sets self.iTime (default: self.iTime)
• title Figure title; default uses the model time in days
• yForXZSlice y coordinate (meters) at which to take the x-z slice; default uses center y

Returns

• fig Handle to the generated figure

Discussion

Plot a multipanel decomposition of the fluid state (wave vs geostrophic). Creates a compact multipanel figure showing horizontal (x-y) maps and vertical (x-z) sections of vertical vorticity for the total flow, the wave component, and the geostrophic component at a specified model time. Uses fields from the current WVTransform (self.wvt) and applies consistent colormap, plotting scales, and annotations. The x/y axes are presented in kilometers and the z (depth) axis in kilometers.
