The capability of phython to solve problems is increasing day by day and hence wish to get a basic introduction to the language, specifically to solve oceanography problems.
Hi there,
May be you could try this library:

https://github.com/VACUMM/vacumm
A complete documentation you could find in
Article VACUMM - A Python library for ocean science
You may also enjoy and discuss any'phyton'thing in the phyton ocean community:

A more general introduction to Python with some examples of loading and analysing data is available at

Basically these are two things. If you never worked with Python before I would suggest to have a look into a general introduction. Take a special look into handling loops, arrays and lists and when to use them, it is gonna save you lot's of computational time.
For specific oceanographic applications I usually use some function from the Gibbs Sea Water Package (particularly what's related to the equation of state): https://github.com/TEOS-10/GSW-python This package gave everything I needed besides the general python scripting. For visualization in general and maps matplotlib and basemap do a great job and are pretty straight forward:

Maybe you should take a look here: http://pyaos.johnny-lin.com/?page_id=1400
To save time with libraries installation, you can use anaconda (https://www.anaconda.com/what-is-anaconda/)
first learn basic numpy , ,xarray ,pandas , scipy , matplotlib scikitlearn
then

Not sure if someone else has already mentioned this awesome Python blog for oceanographers: https://ocefpaf.github.io/python4oceanographers/
It is definitely worth a look.
Cheers, Saulo
Dr. Robert Hetland of Texas A&M University put together a good course on just that subject. His course materials can be found at his git hub page https://github.com/hetland
You should be able to work your way through the material and it will be an introduction to python with a specific focus on oceanography.
