Hi Nan,

I made that plot with matlab using the dynamic topography output that is given in ascii format (x,y,z,DT) and interpolated it onto a sphere. If you want I can dig up the code for that, let me know!
In terms of the csv file, I generated that myself by loading the coastlines in matlab (load coast) and then writing them into a csv file.

Cheers,
Jacky

Hmmm, it seems that many iterations passed before I came back to this issue.

I did some google search and find a source for coastline to vtk file as in http://www.earthmodels.org/data-and-tools/coastlines<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__www.earthmodels.org_data-2Dand-2Dtools_coastlines&d=CwMFaQ&c=WO-RGvefibhHBZq3fL85hQ&r=j5AqZvMsoErn2L-vpbdTErPRtyT4BhzQUwKzsenbbTc&m=OiZnTrJamI2PL1CMeS4BQYA2uFx7LFalCwKBMoUmgXY&s=AkgaW1JXviMU5OBrame2uULEKrN3XEaPtefEwmTni38&e=> and http://www.earthmodels.org/software/vtk-and-paraview/vtk-file-formats<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__www.earthmodels.org_software_vtk-2Dand-2Dparaview_vtk-2Dfile-2Dformats&d=CwMFaQ&c=WO-RGvefibhHBZq3fL85hQ&r=j5AqZvMsoErn2L-vpbdTErPRtyT4BhzQUwKzsenbbTc&m=OiZnTrJamI2PL1CMeS4BQYA2uFx7LFalCwKBMoUmgXY&s=YTK4k03y5U5ldfIJuaR2q72pKN_Sz5iWtp468xxB2Z4&e=>. I may work on it after my abstract deadline.

Hi Jacky,

The cvs file you gave me works fine. Thanks! By the way, I see your figure 34, and have a question. How did you do the 2D dynamic topography figure, in GMT or Paraview? If you do it in GMT, what kind of aspect output format did you use for GMT plotting?

Cheers,
Nan




Hi Nan,

Here is a trick you can do, which I used for figure 34:

Download the attached outine1.cvs file. Open paraview and open your solution file for the mantle convection run (apply). Open the outine1.cvs file. Select apply. Click on outine1.cvs and choose the filter ‘table to points’. Choose X Column as xcoord, Y Column as y coord and Z Column as z coord. Click on the window that has your solution on the sphere plotted and then click apply. This should plot the outlines of continents as points. You can then close the table.

Hope this works. Rene might have a better way of doing this.

Cheers,
Jacky
