Collection of Python scripts or Jupyter notebooks (supported by JupyterLab) to reproduce some of the geographic maps shown in the publications I am involved. To prepare these maps I am using PyGMT the Python wrapper for the Generic Mapping Tools (GMT).
Please note: Scripts or notebooks are available up on acceptance of the related publication.
