% Lab 4 hints

% This lab uses many of the same tools used in prior labs.  However,
% you probably would be interested in using a stereographic map projection
% for this lab (centered on the southern hemisphere where the poles and
% the relevant land masess are located:

m_proj('stereographic','lat',-55,'long',60,'radius',60);

% your choice of parameters to make useful maps of your results


% There is a useful m_map function to plot circles around points:

m_range_ring(long,lat,range,'color','r','linewi',2);

% where long and lat are understandable and range is a radius of a circle
% about the specified point (in km)  (you need to convert an angle into a
% distance in km

% an issue that needs your attention is how to "combine data from South
% America and Africa" as the instructions state.  The crux here is that you
% need to figure out how to "average" the data and how to determine the
% uncertainty in the average.

% You probably should include a map showing the different suggested
% reconstructions for Madagascar along with maps of APW points.
