Plotting NPP hdf data

A sample code to plot the NPP data

The data source:

http://orca.science.oregonstate.edu/1080.by.2160.monthly.hdf.vgpm.m.chl.m.sst.php 

 filewant = 'cafe.2007001.hdf';

 

info = hdfinfo(filewant);

 

% This is how you can investigate the file structure...

info.SDS

%% note the names

info.SDS.Attributes.Name

%% note the values of the attributes

info.SDS.Attributes.Value

%% read the npp variable

npp  = double(hdfread(filewant,  'npp' ));

 

npp(npp==-9999) = NaN;

% figure;

% imagesc(npp)

npp = flipud(npp); % because npp is flipped upside down wrt lat/lon for map

 

%%

iLat = linspace(-90,90,1080);

iLon = linspace(-180,180,2160);

[Lat, Lon] = ndgrid(iLat,iLon);

 

figure

load coastlines % coastineData.mat

latlim=[floor(min(min(Lat))),ceil(max(max(Lat))) ]; 

lonlim=[floor(min(min(Lon))),ceil(max(max(Lon))) ];

ax = worldmap(latlim, lonlim);

surfacem(Lat, Lon, npp);

geoshow(coastlat, coastlon,'Color', 'k' )

colormap; set(gcf,'Color','white')

colormap jet

map2 = colormap; 

map2( 1, : ) = 1; colormap(map2);

disp('Next we will try to crop out the area of interest')

%% This is an example of how to crop out to the area of interest...

iLat2 = linspace(-15,45,1080);

iLon2 = linspace(-90,0,2160);

[Lat2, Lon2] = ndgrid(iLat2,iLon2);

Alternating color in table conflicts with xcolor

T

My issue was trying to use the table with alternate color in a latex document with the termcal.
\usepackage[table]{xcolor}    % loads also »colortbl«

There were conflicts.

\PassOptionsToPackage{table}{xcolor} inserted before the \documentclass{..} fixed the issue!

Yes, Thanks to

DiskPart Recovering SD card

My problem:
Tried installing Raspberian into 32 GB SD card. The file system went corrupt-somehow. Could not recover the other big part in windows because windows system.
The diskmanagement system showed the 30GB space in dark, which could not be accessed by simple formatting or change of the drive letter.

So, I had to go commando.
Went to the command mode.
Windows> CMD (admin mode)
Then executed the following codes...

Now I can see the whole SD card space!

Change Printers Default Single Sided Setting #mac

 Well, there is an easy way...

http://localhost:631/

This prompted me to do
cupsctl WebInterface=yes
to the terminal... which enabled opening up the printer options... then I could set up the duplex printing.
Went to
http://localhost:631/admin/#General
Then, I had to select "Two-sided, Long-edge binding".

This enabled printing on both sides.
