colorbar scale not reflected on contour map

Hello all,

I have been reading on setting a single colorbar scale to multiple maps, but I am not finding the results that I am looking for.

I have multiple maps and I would like to set the same color scale for them from 0-25. I have tried the examples on the forum, but the contour map colors are not reflecting the color scale.

For example, I have a contour map with Maximum value of 12, which should be a green color based on the 0-25 color scale, but it shows up yellow, which corresponds to the maximum value of the color scale, 25. Is there a way to force the scale onto all my maps so that they reflect the 0-25 scale on the contourmap?

My code is below:

figure('Color','white')
latlim = [-90  90];
lonlim = [  0 360];
gratsize = 1 + [diff(latlim), diff(wrapTo360(lonlim))]/6;
[lat, lon] = meshgrat(latlim, lonlim, gratsize);
ax=worldmap ('world') 
setm(ax,'mlabelparallel',-90)
contourfm(latlim,lonlim,Final')
coast = load('coast');
geoshow(coast.lat, coast.long,'Color', 'white')
caxis manual; 
caxis([0 20]);
colorbar;

Thank you for your time and input.

Your

caxis([0 20]);

is a problem if you want the maximum to reflect 25.
