# smc_anom_1D-2D_1979-2012_6levels_global.py

# This Python2.7 code was used on CEDA JASMIN to produce monthly

# animation frames for an animated gif that was then made into an MP4

# for showing the seasonal anomaly of soil moisture

# over the whole globe from 1979-2012

# using (as input) monthly-averaged JULES land-only 1D data.

# This Python2.7 code was adapted from the code given in Emma Robinson’s

# data visualization tutorial for plotting JULES data at http://jules.jchmr.org/content/training .

# The adaptation was done in November-December 2017 by Patrick McGuire and Pier Luigi Vidale

# at the University of Reading (email: p.mcguire@reading.ac.uk )
