Hi there,

I am looking to plot the change in direction of larval dispersal from a spawning location over the course of 5 separate spawning months (February through to June). I'm looking to use windrose plots to best achieve this.

While I can plot dispersal for each month individually, is there a way to plot the output for all 5 months to show the difference in the direction/extent of dispersal?

Many thanks in advance!

Hi,

I think you can try to use the dataset of sum to control the width of data bar in windrose plot. For example, there is a column value of sum in your worksheet.



You can create a windrose graph as below by following this tutorial:
http://www.originlab.com/doc/Tutorials/Windrose-Graph



Next, you can double click the plot to open Plot Details dialog, and then go to Spacing tab. In Width (in %) item, select Col (G): “SUM” in the drop-down list. After clicking OK button, you can see that a wider data bar refers to a larger value of sum.



What’s more, color, fill pattern and size are also the plot attributes in Origin that can be controlled by values in a dataset. More details can be found in these pages:

Hope it helps.

Regards,
Yuki
