Helpful Hints
When drawing in the isotherms remember that due to quick changes in ocean SST’s in some locations the isotherms will be very close together. You need to think ahead in order to get several 0.5°C isotherms in between adjacent buoy locations.
Once your isotherms are drawn in, you may go back and shade in the appropriate color for each temperature range.
