dv2uvG_Wrap
Computes the divergent (irrotational) wind components for a gaussian grid via spherical harmonics and retains metadata.
Prototype
load "$NCARG_ROOT/lib/ncarg/nclscripts/csm/contributed.ncl" ; This library is automatically loaded ; from NCL V6.2.0 onward. ; No need for user to explicitly load. function dv2uvG_Wrap ( dv : float or double ) return_val [2, dimsizes(dv)] : float or double
Arguments
dvDivergence array (input, two or more dimensions, where the rightmost two dimensions must be lat x lon)
- input values must be in ascending latitude order
- input array must be on a global grid
Description
This function is identical to dv2uvG, except the return value will have metadata added based on metadata attached to dv. See the dv2uvG page for full documentation and examples.
