Exercise: Download a dataset, write provenance during analysis.
Step 1: Go to dataset “Niskin bottle samples” https://www.bco-dmo.org/dataset/3782
- Click the
Subset Databutton at the top of the page.- Download a subset of this dataset containing cruise 314, cast 005.
Solution You can use this link to download the subset of data for the exercise:
Step 2: Plot Depth vs Temperature

Open new doors with a programming language
Like version control, learning a programming language has a learning curve. But the benefits after you learn it will be substantial. It will open up a lot of doors for your current research, and you will have a valuable skill that is in demand in many fields including research.
Python Example
An example python notebook that is fully reproducible that does the exact same thing we just did manually to create that plot.
BATS niskin subset example And my text.
There are many resources online for learning a programming language, but you can check out the “Software Carpentry” lessons which https://software-carpentry.org/lessons/
