How to plot wind direction on a map using quiverm

Hello,

I am trying to plot wind direction on a map using the Mapping Toolbox function- quiverm. I have the lat/lon information and the corresponding u and v wind speed in m/s.

However, the quiverm function takes the u and v in angle units, and so the output vectors don't make sense.

Any ideas on how to work around this problem to use the quiverm to display the wind direction on a map?

Many thanks!

The ncquiverref function plots wind speed vectors properly.

Alternatively, quivermc is an adapted version of ncquiverref with different plotting options.
