import numpy as np
import pygmt
# prepare the input x and y data
x = np.arange(0, 105, 5)
y = np.ones(x.size)
# transparency level in percentage from 0 (i.e., opaque) to 100
transparency = x
fig = pygmt.Figure()
fig.basemap(
region=[-5, 105, 0, 2],

)
fig.plot(x=x, y=y, style="c0.6c", fill="blue", pen="1p,red", transparency=transparency)
