Re: About build-in function dim_stddev.

Hello

I don't understand,

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

does not return a time series. It will reduce the dimenstionality

xStdTime = dim_stddev( x(lat|:, lon|:, time|:) ) ; ==>
xStdTime(nlat,nlon)

====

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

will return an arrays of the same size.
