Anomaly and Flux Variables


Question:

What is the best way to present anomaly or flux variables?

Example:

Solution:

Anomaly and flux variables, along with components of wind or currents and any other variables that vary equally about zero are best presented with a centered palette and levels. You can specify this in the xml configuration file with:

<properties>
 <ferret>
  <fill_levels>20c</fill_levels>
  <palette>light_centered</palette>
 </ferret>
</properties>
