Select areas of plot

I'm working in temperature data in a specific area of the ocean, my plot shows me latitudes that goes from 0 to 300, i need to select specific latitudes, these areas are between latitudes of 0 and 50 and then in the same graph i need to show the latitudes of 250 to 300. Any solutions to exclude the data i don't need in my plot? Thanks

*ps: already tried Xlim, and subplots doesn't solve my problem.

Are you sure you mean latitudes? abs(lat)<=90, with no practical exceptions in oceanography as far as I know. Longitudes, however, may go to 360.

u can find the latitudes you want to plot and plot just them

id1 = find(lat>=0&lat<=50);
% make the plot
plot(lat(id1),data(id1),'b-');

% find the second area
id2 = find(lat>=250&lat<=300);

% hold the current axes
hold on

% plot second area
plot(lat(id2),data(id2),'b-');
