PALETTES: Different Impressions of Color Ramps

This page shows some example graphics to compare the effects of different types of color ramps.

Examples

Salinity visualization

Monochrome sequential color ramp White to red	Multicolored sequential color ramp Yellow-orange-red
Symbolization of salinity with a monochrome sequential color ramp (Reds)	Symbolization of salinity with a multicolored sequential color ramp (YlOrRd)

Diverging color ramp Red-Yellow-Green	Diverging color ramp Red-Yellow-Blue
Symbolization of salinity with a diverging color ramp (RdYlGn)	Symbolization of salinity with a diverging color ramp (RdYlBu)

Diverging color ramp Spectral	Qualitative color ramp Colors Set_1
Symbolization of salinity with a diverging color ramp (Spectral)	Symbolization of salinity with a qualitative color ramp (Set1)

Water level visualization
