[ncl-talk] temperature advection

Hello,


I am using the advect_variable function in NCL v6.3 on 3 hourly global reanalysis data to calculate horizontal temperature advection.

The patterns of temperature advection I am seeing seem realistic, but appear to be the wrong sign (cold advection has positive values etc.)


There is some discussion of multiplying by -1 to get the right sign here: http://mailman.ucar.edu/pipermail/wrf-users/2016/004188.html


Can you confirm that it is indeed appropriate to multiply by -1?


Thanks,
Peter
