Waterfall plot of a time series data

I want to create a waterfall plot of a daily temperature time series data against months of the x-axis, depth on the y-axis and years on the z-axis. My daily temperature data is in netcdf format. The data is a daily temperature data from Nov 2007 to May 2014 over 15 different levels of depth. I wish to contour the vertical temperature profile over 3 tempearature isotherms and average the dailty data to monthly mean. I wish to use the plot to see temperature anomaly (peaks and dips) over the period of years given on the y-axis.

You can use ncread to access your data within the netcdf file. ( From MATLAB documentation )

ncdisp('example.nc','peaks');
peaksData  = ncread('example.nc','peaks');
peaksDesc  = ncreadatt('example.nc','peaks','description');
surf(double(peaksData));
title(peaksDesc);

Not knowing how your data is structured within the netcdf renders a better answer impossible.
