I have many water quality variables taken over many years at many depths. The date variable is a an array of doubles in the format yyyymmdd. I have written a code to plot a variable for a given depth range, between certain dates. But I would like to be able to add another variable onto the same plot with a secondary y-axis using the same date range. I got this far but i cant think of a way to get a second plot on there?
function [out1] = simpleplot(var,depthvar,mindepth,maxdepth,datevar,startdate,enddate,xlab,ylab);
% Convert date from doubles to datetime, and also date limits.
y = floor(datevar/10000);
m = floor(mod(datevar, 10000) / 100);
d = mod(datevar, 100);
date = datetime(y, m, d);
starty = floor(startdate/10000);
startm = floor(rem(startdate,10000)/100);
startd = rem(startdate,100);
datetime(starty, startm, startd); %check
endy = floor(enddate/10000);
endm = floor(rem(enddate,10000)/100);
endd = rem(startdate,100);
datetime(endy, endm, endd); %check
% Find variable for only given depth range. match date variable to the same dimensions also.
depth = find(depthvar>mindepth & depthvar<maxdepth & ~isnan(var));
datedepth=date(depth);
variable_depth=var(depth);
out1=plot(datedepth, variable_depth,'sk--');
xlabel(xlab);
ylabel(ylab);
xmin=datenum(datetime(starty, startm, startd));
xmax=datenum(datetime(endy, endm, endd));
xlim([xmin xmax]);
ylim([min(variable_depth) max(variable_depth)]);
end

Hi Aaron,
If you want to plot another varaible on the same plot with same scale(of y-axes), you could use the plot command. On the other hand, if you want to plot another variable on the same plot with different scale(of y-axes), you could use the 'plotyy' command. Refer the documentations of 'plot' and 'plotyy' commands for more information regarding this.
As an example, execute the following code snippet to help you get started:
clear all
x=1:10;
y=x.*x;
z=x.^3;
%plot y and z data v/s x data. (Note: Same scale for y-axes)
figure(1)
h=plot(x,y,x,z);
%edit plot properties
h(1).Marker='*';
h(1).MarkerEdgeColor='b';
h(2).Marker='o';
h(2).MarkerEdgeColor='r';
%plot y and z data v/s x data. (Note: Different scale for y-axes)
figure(2)
[Ax,hxa,hxb] = plotyy(x,y,x,z);
%edit plot properties
hxa(1).Marker='*';
hxa(1).MarkerEdgeColor='b';
hxb(1).Marker='o';
hxb(1).MarkerEdgeColor='r';
Hope this helps.
