MAKE_GOMED Create a drifter-derived eddy database for the Gulf of Mexico. This function creates the Gulf of Mexico Eddy Dataset, or GOMED, which contains estimated properties of coherent eddy-like features in surface drifter data. For details, see Lilly, J. M. and P. Perez-Brunius (2021). Extracting statistically significant eddy signals from large Lagrangian datasets using wavelet ridge analysis, with application to the Gulf of Mexico. Nonlinear Processes in Geophysics. https://doi.org/10.5194/npg-28-181-2021 The dataset is available at Lilly, J. M. and P. Perez-Brunius (2021). The Gulf of Mexico Eddy Dataset (GOMED), a census of statistically significant eddy- like events from all available surface drifter data (V. 1.1.0). [Data set]. Zenodo. http://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.3978803. This function contains the code for creating GOMED.NC. It is provided for completeness, although it will not be possible for you to recreate it because some of the drifter source files are proprietary. The code can be run on the publicly available portion of the data by swapping 'GulfDriftersAll' for 'GulfDriftersOpen' below. Thanks to Paula Garcia Carrillo of CICESE for help with the conversion to NetCDF.
