Thermospheric General Circulation Models (TGCM)

TGCMPROC-like master scripts

Latitude vs. Time



master script: latut_master.ncl

This script contours selected fields over a polar stereographic map projection at selected Zp pressure levels. User settable options include color, curly-vector overlay, and postscript file output.
1) user choice: black and white + zplev + lon ut(hours)

     
     comment out colormap
     ; colormap = "BlWhRe" 
     type       = "lon" 
     lon2plt    =  90 
     zplev      = -4
     
2) user choice: color + zplev + slt ut(hours)

      
     colormap = "BlWhRe" 
     type     = "slt" 
     slt      =  5 
     zplev    = -4
     
3) user choice: color + zplev + zonal mean ut(days)

     
     colormap = "BlWhRe" 
     type     = "zmean" 
     zplev    = -10.
     
4) user choice: color + zplev + lon ut(months)

     
     colormap = "BlAqGrYeOrRevi200" 
     zplev    = -10.
     type     = "lon" 
     lon2plt  = 90.
     
5) user choice: color + lat/zonal mean + limit axis ut(days)

     
     colormap = "BlAqGrYeOrRevi200" 
     type     = "lon" 
     lon2plt  =  90.
     zplev    = -10.
     ymin     =   0.
     
6) user choice: color + lat/zonal mean + manually select contour intervals ut(days)

     
     colormap = "BlWhRe" 
     type     = "zmean" 
     zplev    = -10.
     manlev   =  True
     minlev   = -4000
     maxlev   =  4000
     int      =  500
     
7) user choice: color + lat/zonal mean + interpolate to height

     
     colormap = "BlAqGrYeOrRevi200"  
     type     = "zmean" 
     height   = 150
     
8) user choice: color + lat/slt + density unit conversion

     
     colormap      = "BlAqGrYeOrRevi200"  
     type          = "slt"
     slt           = 5 
     density_units = "GM/CM3"
