The routine asks for the year, month, and latitude-longitude box of interest and displays a table of all available ARGO profiles as well as their dates, times, and positions, as retrieved from a NOAA ARGO website. Individual profiles can then be selected and, unless most of the data is missing for that profile, the routine plots temperature and salinity as a function of pressure. This script is useful for a quick look at ARGO data and for retrieving individual profiles and converting them to MATLAB vectors. You are welcome to improve on this script and re-post it.

Version Published Release Notes
1.2.0.0

The temperature, salinity, and pressure vectors are cleared at each iteration to avoid subscripted assignment
dimension mismatches.
1.1.0.0

The routine was changed to use MATLAB's internal netcdf routines rather than an external set that was used with the first version.
