Hi all,

I have plotted a 2D histogram like so:

python2.7
import netCDF4
import iris
import iris.palette
import numpy as np
import matplotlib as mpl
import matplotlib.cm as cm
import matplotlib.mlab as mlab
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
from matplotlib.colors import from_levels_and_colors

fig=plt.figure()
nbins=20
nice_cmap=plt.get_cmap('brewer_RdYlBu_11')
colors=nice_cmap([5,6,7,8,9,10])
levels=[1,2,3,4,5]
cmap, norm=from_levels_and_colors(levels, colors, extend='both')

H, xedges, yedges=np.histogram2d(te_Q0_con_sw,hs_Q0_con_sw,bins=nbins)
Hmasked=np.ma.masked_where(H==0,H)
plt.pcolormesh(xedges,yedges,Hmasked,cmap=cmap,norm=norm,label='Q0 control')

# From this I get a 'scattered' 2D histogram.

Does anyone know how I can contour that scatter?

Thanks,

Jamie
