English term or phrase: stick vector plot
O contexto é um estudo oceanográfico relacionado com dados recolhidos por ADCP’s (acoustic doppler current profilers)aparelhos de perfilar correntes tipo doppler acústico e a frase com este termo é:
“The stick vector plot was created from the observed north and east velocity components. The length of the stick is proportional to the current speed” (as frases sublinhadas sendo as que com tenho dificuldade).
Agradecia qualquer ajuda.

Explanation:
A palavra stick está aí só como a representação gráfica do vetor. Poderia ser secantes( das curvas cujos valores foram obtidos), bastões, palitos, flexas, etc. Gráfico vetorial ou gráfico de vetores já descreve bem o que é o vector plot.

How to Read a Stick Plot


After you've selected a buoy and clicked on the "View Image of Current Buoy Velocity Data" option to see a graph of the latest data, you are suddenly confronted with a page containing 4 graphs stacked on top of each other. The one you are interested in is the odd-looking one at the top. This graph is called a "stick plot" and the following are some tips on reading one of these graphs.


Each "stick" (also called a vector) on the stick plot contains three pieces of information: direction, time, and magnitude (strength).
