Things You Can Do With Your Graphs

Well, you can do anything you want with your graphs, of course. But some things you might not have considered are:

Web page authors can embed a graph of the latest data in a web page using HTML <img> tags.
Anyone can use ERDDAPs Slide Sorter to build a personal web page that displays graphs with the latest data (or other images or HTML content), each in its own, draggable slide.

"Samples were collected from the CTD-Rosette PVC Niskin bottles, then preserved
with paraformaldehyde (0.5% final concentration). Preserved samples were then
flash frozen in liquid nitrogen, and subsequently stored at -80\\u00b0C until
analysis on-shore in batches. Upon thawing, samples were stained with Hoechst
33342 DNA stain (1 ug/mL final concentration), incubated at room temperature
in the dark for 1 h, then analyzed using a Beckman-Coulter Altra flow
cytometer, equipped with one 488 nm 1W laser and one UV 200 mM laser for
excitation. Samples (100 ul) were delivered quantitatively to the instrument
using a Harvard Apparatus syringe pump, at a rate of 50 ul per minute. Signals
from the DNA detector (450\\u00b140 nm) and the forward and side scatter
detectors were used to delineate non-pigmented bacteria, in conjunction with
the Chlorophyll detector (680\\u00b120 nm) and Phycoerythrin detector
(575\\u00b120 nm) to eliminate chlorophyll and/or phycoerythrin-bearing cells
that overlapped (e.g., Prochlorococcus and Synechoccoccus). Calibration beads
(0.5 u\\u00b5m and 1.0 um yellow-green and 0.5 um UV) were used to normalize
cellular fluorescence values and assure optimal instrument settings. Raw data
files (listmode) were processed in FlowJo software (Treestar Inc.).";

"Research was aimed at improved understanding of plankton dynamics, carbon and nutrient fluxes, and potential trace element limitation in the Costa Rica Dome region of the eastern tropical Pacific. The specific science objectives of the 2010 R/V Melville cruise (MV1008) were:
1) to assess grazing and trace metal/nutrient controls on primary production and phytoplankton standing stocks;
2) to quantify carbon and elemental fluxes and export rates from the euphotic zone; and
3) to measure microbial population, processes, stable isotope abundances associated with the OMZ and nitrite maxima.
Additional information about MV1008 can be found in the cruise report (PDF).
NOTE: The original proposal and award abstract are not relevant. The project was originally funded by NSF as experimental tests of phytoplankton controls in the Arabian Sea. Piracy concerns in the region led to the cancellation of the research cruise in 2009, and a Change of Scope request was approved to focus the project on related issues in the Costa Rica Dome (CRD).
Though this project is not formally affiliated with any large program, it aligns with IMBER's emphasis on community ecology and biogeochemistry, and the OCB focus on carbon-based measurements of production, grazing and export processes.";

Using tabledap to Request Data and Graphs from Tabular Datasets

tabledap lets you request a data subset, a graph, or a map from a tabular dataset (for example, buoy data), via a specially formed URL. tabledap uses the OPeNDAP (external link)

Data Access Protocol (DAP) (external link)

and its selection constraints (external link)

The URL specifies what you want: the dataset, a description of the graph or the subset of the data, and the file type for the response.

(easy) You can get data by using the dataset's Data Access Form or Subset form. They make the URL for you.
(easy) You can make a graph or map by using the dataset's Make A Graph form. It makes the URL for you.
(not hard) You can bypass the forms and get the data or make a graph or map by generating the URL by hand or with a computer program or script.

Tabledap request URLs must be in the form
https://coastwatch.pfeg.noaa.gov/erddap/tabledap/datasetID.fileType{?query}
For example,
https://coastwatch.pfeg.noaa.gov/erddap/tabledap/pmelTaoDySst.htmlTable?longitude,latitude,time,station,wmo_platform_code,T_25&time>=2015-05-23T12:00:00Z&time<=2015-05-31T12:00:00Z
Thus, the query is often a comma-separated list of desired variable names, followed by a collection of constraints (e.g., variable<value), each preceded by '&' (which is interpreted as "AND").

For details, see the tabledap Documentation.
