! jnl file that uses Argo data to make different vertical section potential density plots. The sections are either ! in a N-s direction or an E-W direction. This does not make arbitrary section plots. ! 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_section_monthly_anom section_direction ylo yhi time month depth_min depth_max xlo xhi 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 section_direction and the depth_min and depth_max without filling in the ! section_location and the time_start and time_end ! section direction can be "N" for N-S or "E" for E-W ! xlo corresponds to the lowest latitude limit ! xhi corresponds to the highest latitude limit ! ylo corresponds to the lowest longitude limit ! yhi corresponds to the highest longitude limit ! 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 ! month values are entered in the range of 1-12 corresponding to the monthly anomaly you would like to look ! ranging from Jan-Dec. ! NOTE: These plots only make sense if time and month values correspond. In other words, if you want to look ! at a January monthly anomaly, you choose '1' for month and then choose '1' for Jan. 2004, '13' for Jan. 2005, ! '25' for Jan. 2006, or '37' for Jan. 2007. No other choices make sense. ! 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).
