2DH View

The temperature can be visualized and animated in 2DH View. These can be added to the 2DH View by clicking the Add button in the 2DH View’s Layer Control then select Primary Group: Water Column and Parameter: Temperature as shown in Figure 1

Time Series

The graphic of temperature time series can be visualized by click the Time Series button or the icon Image Removed of the main toolbar. The Extract Time Series Data tab appears as shown in Figure 2. It is possible to plot the time series for a single cell or multiple cells. Firstly, defying the cells to plots is in the box under Selected Cells. When the L index is entered the corresponding I and J indices are filled automatically. The parameter should be defined in the box, Primary Group: Water Column and Parameter: Temperature. Add and remove the parameter can be adjusted by the left and right arrow button. The user may define the start and stop day for the time series in Time Series Start/Stop frame (note that the start and stop days should be within the model's start and end date). Clicking OK plots the selected graphs

Vertical Profiles

The graphic of salinity vertical profiles can be visualized by click the Vertical Profile button or the icon Image Removed of the main toolbar. The Vertical Profiles tab shows in Figure 4It is possible to plot the vertical profiles for a single cell or multiple cells. Firstly, defying the cells to plots is in the box under Selected Cells. When the L index is entered the corresponding I and J indices are filled automatically. The parameter should be defined in the box, Primary Group: Water Column and Parameter: Temperature. Add and remove the parameter can be adjusted by the left and right arrows. It is possible to import an external file to compare with model results, that function is useful for the model calibration and validation.

Longitudinal Profiles

The graphic of salinity longitudinal profiles can be visualized by click the Longitudinal Profile button or the icon Image Removed of the main toolbar.  Figure 6 show the Data Extraction for Longitudinal Profile form. This form is similar to the Data Extraction for 2DV View form. Firstly, it is necessary to define the profile using the drape file or I, J indices and then define the parameter to the plot. Once everything is ready, click OK to generate the plot. Figure 7 shows a longitudinal profile for salinity and bottom elevation along with the profile I=39.
