<p>I came across a few lines from the eqn_3.ncl example on the NCL Applications page (<a href="https://www.ncl.ucar.edu/Applications/eqn.shtml" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">https://www.ncl.ucar.edu/Applications/eqn.shtml</a>) that demonstrate how to plot a - over +.
I thought you might find it relevant or useful.</p>
