Thanks guys,

I tried another approach and things seem to fall into place. The problem
was not that the colorbar was taking up too much space, but rather that the
xlabel string were placed below the colorbar. My panel plot has two columns
and making a common colorbar solved the problem.

Appreciate the advice :-)
