[ncl-talk] Drawing portrait digram

[Dennis Shea]

Portrait diagrams provide statistical information about test data relative
to a reference data set.
Most commonly, the reference data set is observationally bases.

Tables are one form of a 'portrait diagram'.

A common approach is to use a taylor diagram.

See Example 8

Read the documentation at the top and the references.
Also:
The taylor diagram needs pattern correlation and a ratio of variances.
