spacepy.plot.spectrogram.simpleSpectrogram¶
- spacepy.plot.spectrogram.simpleSpectrogram(*args, **kwargs)[source]¶
Plot a spectrogram given Z or X,Y,Z. This is a wrapper around pcolormesh() that can handle Y being a 2d array of time dependent bins. Like in the Van Allen Probes HOPE and MagEIS data files.
- Parameters:
- *args1 or 3 arraylike
Call Signatures:
simpleSpectrogram(Z, **kwargs) simpleSpectrogram(X, Y, Z, **kwargs)
- Returns:
- axmatplotlib.axes._subplots.AxesSubplot
Matplotlib axes object that the plot is on
- Other Parameters:
- zlogbool
Plot the color with a log colorbar (default: True)
- ylogbool
Plot the Y axis with a log scale (default: True)
- alphascalar (0-1)
The alpha blending value (default: None)
- cmapstring
The name of the colormap to use (default: system default)
- vminfloat
Minimum color value (default: Z.min(), if log non-zero min)
- vmaxfloat
Maximum color value (default: Z.max())
- axmatplotlib.axes
Axes to plot the spectrogram on (default: None - new axes)
- cbbool
Plot a colorbar (default: True)
- cbtitlestring
Label to go on the colorbar (default: None)
- zero_validbool
Treat zero as a valid value on zlog plots and use same color as other under-minimum values. No effect with linear colorbar. (default: False, draw as fill)
