Attached is an *unsupported* function.

This requires that (1) the data be global and (2) the data be on a
rectilinear grid.

The u*(dT/dx) + v*(dT/dy) could also be calculated by using

http://www.ncl.ucar.edu/Document/Functions/Built-in/center_finite_diff.shtml

or, better when v5.2.0 is released

http://www.ncl.ucar.edu/Document/Functions/Built-in/center_finite_diff_n.shtml

See Example 6

Good luck
