I finally got something that makes more sense, though I'm not sure why it works. I made a net that goes Import->Slab->Autocolor->Image and dimension: 2 and position: 1 in the Slab module. I'll look up slab to try and understand this and perhaps post again... Also, you said I am doing "Direct volume rendering" Is this not normal? To me looking at temp or salinity in a 3D setting has got to be a super common application in the viz world--I'm just trying to find out how one would go about doing this traditionally in opendx. I have read a bunch on it and can't quite see a match except for beautiful visualizations in the gallery that don't have how the net was set up to do these...
