Install code (in a new conda env)

This assumes that conda is installed, probably through the Anaconda program already. We will install a fresh environment with all of the tools you will need for this tutorial.
Note that you may have another install of gmt already that could possibly clash with this.

My installation

# using python.v3.12, and pygmt.v0.12.0
conda create --name pygmt --channel conda-forge ipython ipykernel numpy pandas gmt pygmt cartopy elevation 

You may want to remove prior gmt installs outsides of the python environment, as it may conflict.

enter env

# useful for command-line operations
conda activate pygmt

Launch Jupyter Notebooks

# ensure that you're in the directory with '.ipynb' files
jupyter notebook

Within the notebook proceed with the following order:

Beginner

1. Testing_Install.ipynb
2. Mapping_projections.ipynb
3. Mapping_Overlays.ipynb
4. Shaded_Relief.ipynb

Advanced

5. Shaded_Relief-Earthquake.ipynb
6. PlatesBoundariesLandWater.ipynb
