To my knowledge the answer is "no".
An NCL "gamfit" would be a nice function to have but NCL does not
have a built-in equivalent.
??? Volunteers to create an NCL 'gamfit' ??????
--- I am sure you are aware of: http://www.ncl.ucar.edu/Document/Functions/Built-in/cdfgam_p.shtml http://www.ncl.ucar.edu/Document/Functions/Built-in/cdfgam_x.shtml These are functionally the same as Matlab's "gamcdf" and "gaminv". [Actually, the last argument of NCL's "cdfgam_p" & "cdfgam_x" needs to be inverted.] On 04/19/2010 04:27 PM, Rob Nicholas wrote: > Hi NCLers, > > Has anyone used NCL to calculate maximum likelihood estimates of the > gamma distribution shape and scale parameters?
