[ncl-talk] advect_variable problem

[Yang, Xiaoxin]

Dear Dennis,
Thank you for the reply.
I’ve solved the issue with advect_var, thanks to Thomas’s help.
My current problem is with this function: wgt_vertical_n. I was trying to produce the vertical integration.
My NCL version couldn’t recognize it. The error message said:
Fatal: Undefined identifier: (wgt_vertical_n) is undefined, can’t continue.
Looking forward to your reply.
Best,
Xiaoxin

As noted by Thomas, I made a mistake

=======

I noted the issue here:
    http://www.ncl.ucar.edu/current_release.shtml
==
The 6.4.0 contributed.ncl supports both names.

undef("advect_var")
function advect_var (u:numeric, v:numeric, x:numeric,gridType[1]:integer
                    ,long_name:string, units:string, iopt[1]:integer)
begin
[SNIP]
end
;====================> Fix documentation name problem
undef("advect_variable")
function advect_variable (u:numeric, v:numeric, x:numeric,gridType[1]:integer
                          ,long_name:string, units:string, iopt[1]:integer)
; advect_variable was the original function
begin
  return( advect_var(u, v, x, gridType, long_name, units, iopt) )
end
;---

Xiaoxin,

This funcction apparently used to be in "shea_util.ncl", and it was supposed to get moved to "contributed.ncl", but it seems that never happened.

I've been trying to find the function so I could attach it here, but no luck yet. I'll see if Dennis knows where it is.

Dear Thomas,
Thank you for the reply.
Then I tried to calculate the vertical weighted sum using “wgt_vertical_n”, and encountered the same problem.
Fatal: Undefined identifier: (wgt_vertical_n) is undefined, can’t continue.
Is there a typo in the documentation too? I was wondering what should the right function be to conduct vertical integration.
Thanks in advance.
Xiaoxin

Use "advect_var" instead. There is a typo in the documentation.

Best,

Dear all,
I was running NCL version 6.3.0. Yet when I tried using advect_variable function, I got a mistake:
Fatal: undefined identifier: (advect_variable) is undefined, can’t continue.
Can  anybody help?
Best,
Xiaoxin
