NCL > What's New
What's coming up in the next release of NCL
Version 5.2.0 - December 2009
- dtrend_n,
dtrend_n_Wrap,
int2p_n,
int2p_n_Wrap,
linint1_n,
linint1_n_Wrap,
linmsg_n,
linmsg_n_Wrap
This suite of functions is an improvement to the existing versions of these functions which operate only on the rightmost dimension. These functions allow you to specifiy which dimension to operate on, so you don't have to reorder the input array(s) first.
-
clmDayTLL,
clmMonTLL,
clmMonTLLL,
stdMonTLL,
stdMonTLLL,
month_to_annual,
month_to_annual_weighted.
These were updated to use dim_avg_n and/or dim_stddev_n.
-
gsn_add_polygon,
gsn_add_polyline,
gsn_add_polymarker.
These functions have been updated to recognize the special tfPolyDrawOrder resource.
- PopLatLon, PopLatLonV
These functions have been updated to recognize the high resolution "tx0.1v2" mappings.
-
WindRoseBasic,
WindRoseColor,
WindRoseThickLine.
These were updated to allow the wspd and wdir to be multi-dimensional.
- Another bug in the recent implementation of aggregated variable subscripting for the file list returned
by the addfiles function was found in
version 5.1.1 and has now been fixed. It involves selection along the aggregated
dimension only when using vector subscripting. The problem occurs when a selection results in a single element being
accessed along the aggregated dimension for any file in the list. The symptoms of this problem range from possible
core dumps to returned variables that have fewer coordinate variables than expected along with odd mix-ups between
the coordinate variables that are present. Users are advised to avoid using vector subscripting along the aggregated
dimension if there is a possibility that only one element is selected from any of the files in the list.
- int2p_Wrap
The argument prototype xo[*]:numeric is no longer applicable. The function allows the xo to be multidimensional.
- mjo_xcor_lag_season
Added a statment that fixes a possible numerical rounding issue.
- rho_mwjf
Dr. Arne Melson [Norwegian Meteorological Institute, R & D - Oceanography ] noted that the results were applicable for computing surface potential density only, i.e., where depth=0. A modification has since been applied [version 5.2.0] to accurately compute all density surfaces (depth >= 0).
- rcm2points_Wrap
Corrected an interface error.
- skewT_PlotData
Fixed an issue that occured when the attribute [resource] ThermoInfo was set to False.
- WindRoseBasic
Allows the wspd and wdir to be multidimensional.
- WindRoseColor
Allows the wspd and wdir to be multidimensional.
- WindRoseThickLine
Allows the wspd and wdir to be multidimensional.
