stdMonLLT

Calculates standard deviations of monthly means.

Prototype

load "$NCARG_ROOT/lib/ncarg/nclscripts/csm/contributed.ncl"  ; This library is automatically loaded
                                                             ; from NCL V6.2.0 onward.

	function stdMonLLT (
		x [*][*][*] : numeric   
	)

	return_val [*][*][12] :  typeof(x)

Arguments

x

A three-dimensional array of monthly means, dimensioned lat x lon x time. The time dimension must be a multiple of 12.

Return value

The results are returned in an array of the same type and dimensionality as x, except the time dimension will be length 12. If the input data contain metadata, these will be retained.

Description

This function calculates standard deviations of monthly means.
