! jnl file that uses Argo data to make different vertical section potential density plots. The sections are point-to-point. ! requires input arguments for the location of section, the time range, the depth range and the distance range ! to run the program in ferret, you will need to type the following line with or without the various values ! filled in: ! go fer_podens_point_yearly_anom x1 y1 x2 y2 time_start time_end depth_min depth_max depth_axis con_lev ! If you choose not to give values for the various variables, default ones will be substituted for you. ! If you only want to choose some values, you can, but you cannot skip any values. This means you can ! fill in the first 2 and no others, or if you want to specify the time ranges, you must do the first 4. ! You can't choose to do the depth_min and depth_max without filling in the ! x1, y1, x2, y2, time_start, and time_end ! x1 corresponds to the starting longitude point ! x2 corresponds to the ending longitude point ! y1 corresponds to the starting latitude point ! y2 corresponds to the ending latitude point ! depth values are entered in the range of 0 - 2000dbar with the default being 0 - 1000dbar ! time values are entered corresponding to monthly values starting with Jan, 2004. ! The default is the entire time range. ! con_lev sets the contour and fill levels of the plot. This is done in the following format: (lo,hi,delta). ! More than one can be chosen: (lo,mid,delta1),(mid,hi,delta2).
