Questions on irrotational and non-divergent wind plot from WRF, Thanks!

 
 Dear All,

 Thanks for reading this E-mail!

 I am trying to get the irrotational and non-divergent wind component from
WRF model output.

 However, the functions:
 uv2dvG
 dv2uvg
 uv2vrG
 vr2uvg
 (http://www.ncl.ucar.edu/Applications/wind.shtml)
 , which are used to do this work, are all for gaussian grid, while WRF
output is on a cuvilinear grid.

 Should I
 1) Interpolate the WRF output to gaussian grid.
 2) use the method as shown at
http://www.ncl.ucar.edu/Applications/wind.shtml, to get irrotational and
non-divergent wind component.
 3) Interpolate the calculated wind component back to WRF curvilinear
grid/
 ?

 Is there any better way on doing this?

 Thanks in advance for your help!

 Best Regards,

 Xiaoming
