Personal Profile:

I am interested in East Antarctic ice streams and glaciers. My current work is toward constraining uncertainty in projections of the East Antarctic Ice Sheet's contribution to sea level rise.

Specialties:
Seismic imaging, radioglaciology, ice dynamics, gravity, mathematical modelling. I also have some experience with the acoustics of gas hydrates and oceanic methane bubbles.

Here's a fun animation created with Matlab to illustrate uncertainty in radar imaging of glacial bed topography: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jS6R5L60x0c

Professional Interests:
Antarctic ice stream dynamics, sea level rise, underwater acoustics, methane hydrates

23 Apr 2013 Generate maximally perceptually-distinct colors Choose a set of n colors that can be readily distinguished from each other Author: Tim Holy

Very cool idea! One cautionary comment: I'm one of the 5 to 10% of scientists who is mildly colorblind, and I cannot distinguish between colors 3 and 6 in the distinguishable_colors image shown above.

Works great!

12 Mar 2013 clearnot CLEARNOT clears all variables except the input variables Author: Andrew Bliss

Oliver: I have used the keep function for years, but I have always thought it was poorly named. Matlab will always keep your variables unless you tell it to do something else with them. It took me years to find the keep function on FEX because I never searched for the word 'keep'. I still have the darndest time remembering the function name because my thought process is typically that I want to clear all variable except a few. In other words, clearing comes to mind first, and then I think about keeping. This function is intuitively named and can be found easily using Function Hints. That is, I can type "clear" and tab to find "clearnot".

08 Mar 2013 polar stereographic coordinate transformation (map to lat/lon) Transforms map data into lat/lon coordinates for a polar stereographic map projection. NSIDC/SCAR Author: Andrew Bliss

This is absolutely magnificent! Thanks for sharing!

06 Nov 2012 Compressibility Factor Calculator Calculates the compressibility factor of a gas using the Van der Waals equation of state. Author: Chad Greene

Excellent catch, Rebecca! I've updated the function to include Newton's corrections for the quantum gases as you suggested. The new version now also accepts arrays as inputs. The improved function will be up as soon as the File Exchange administrators approve it. Thanks for sharing your expertise!

As a Chemical Engineering student, I've found this to be a great help. My only issue (after only using this a few times) is that Newton's Corrections weren't taken into consideration for helium and hydrogen. (Tc adjusted = Tc + 8K ; Pc adj = Pc + 8.106 bar) Otherwise, choice function!

12 Oct 2012 Butterworth Filters Highpass, lowpass, bandpass, and bandstop Butterworth frequency filters. Author: Chad Greene Greene, Chad

Oh shoot! I forgot about that! Thanks for letting us know, Jan.

12 Oct 2012 Butterworth Filters Highpass, lowpass, bandpass, and bandstop Butterworth frequency filters. Author: Chad Greene Simon, Jan

You need the Signal Processing Toolbox for the BUTTER command.
