Filters

Here are some filters that are useful for manipulating data. There are actually many more available, but they have to be entered manually. See Ingrid Function Documentation for more information. Average over lon lat time | lon lat lon time lat time | lon lat time |
RMS (root mean square with mean *not* removed) over lon lat time | lon lat lon time lat time | lon lat time |
RMSA (root mean square with mean removed) over lon lat time | lon lat lon time lat time | lon lat time |
Maximum over lon lat time | lon lat lon time lat time | lon lat time |
Minimum over lon lat time | lon lat lon time lat time | lon lat time |
Detrend (best-fit-line) over lon lat time | lon lat lon time lat time | lon lat time |
