How to find global extremum?

[Charles Seman]

Witek,

Another way would be to use "set gxout stat" with loops over "z" and
"t"... please find attached a script "var_min_max.gs" (with also a
"pause.gsf" script...)

In the "var_min_max.gs" script, replace the "..." with your parameters...
----
*-----------------------------------------------------------------------
*  Specify GrADS ctl file
*-----------------------------------------------------------------------

ctl_file = '...'

*-----------------------------------------------------------------------
*  Specify names for min/max variables
*-----------------------------------------------------------------------

var_name = '...'

*-----------------------------------------------------------------------
*  Specify time level number(s)...
*-----------------------------------------------------------------------

tlev = '...'
----

I hope this helps,
Chuck
