NSF Site Visit

In order to get everything done for the upcoming NSF site visit, I have created this page to share both temporary and complete results as well as to hold discussions on visualization methods being used, why they are employed, and how to better depict data for the scientists in Oregon. Below are links to images and animations showing the current state of visualization of the curvilinear grid simulation sent to me by Yvette.

Images

  • This visualization uses a combination of iso-surfaces of phytoplankton concentration and O2 saturation of the domain.

• 2.png
  • Same as above only using Temperature instead of O2 saturation

• 3.png
  • Using the same iso-surfaces extracted in the above visualizations, we have loaded the O2 saturation scalar field and determined the values of this field on the phytoplankton concentration surfaces. Additionally, the entire domain is shown using an interactive cutting plane that determines the value of the 2D slice visualization as before.

  • Improving on the previous visualization, I am now providing equally spaced contours of the domain in the 2D slice-based visualization. This provides a much more intuitive visualization of the scalar field. Additionally, while the large 3D domain uses a relatively narrow range of the present scalar values for the colormap, I have increased this range for the 2D case. This provides a more complete visualization of the depth-based components present in the slices while accentuating surface variations in the 3D domain. I have also included the location of each slice in the dataset coordinates in the scalar bar associated with the 2D slice.
