Example 2. Referring to a Single Dimension,
Applied to Multiple Dimensions
Reconsider the previous example, where the measured uncertainties in the
pressure levels now vary over spatial location and time, but are the same for
each wind component. The uncertainties are specified in an
array, U, with the dimensions of
(i.e., pressure, latitude, longitude,
day of month). If the indices start numbering from 0, then we
have the following auxiliary record fields:
- OBJDESC.
- NAUX = 1
- AUXSPEC.
- RECSORT = 0
-
- NUMREF = 1
-
- NUMAPP = 4
-
- START = (0, 0, 0, 0, 0)
-
- END = (-1, -1, -1, -1, -1)
-
- AUXFMT = single precision floating-point
-
- AUXTYPE = measured uncertainty
-
- UNITS = mb
-
- NUMSUP = 0
- AUXRANGE.
- RECSORT = 0
-
- REFLEV = 1
-
- REFNDEX = 2
-
- APPLEV = (1, 1, 1, 2)
-
- APPNDEX = (3, 2, 1, 0)
- AUXVAL.
- RECSORT = 0
-
- AVALS = U(6, 91, 72, 31)
