[gradsusr] plotting vertical wind profiles

[anil devrani]

Claudia,
           I use the following script for a specific station(lat/lon) for
 27 levels and time t=1 to t=37.I have used three types of displays viz
speed in knots, m/sec and skipping some values.
You  may change these values to suit your requirement.Data file used by me
is 05may06_nonocc.ctl
Hope it serves your purpose.
Anil

'reinit'
'open 05may06_nonocc.ctl'
'set lat 30.15'
'set lon 74.45'
'set gxout barb'
'set t  1 37'
'set z 1 27'
*'d u;v'
*'d skip(u,6,6);v'
'd skip(u*1.942,1,2);v*1.942'
*'fprintf u;v  wdprof_vert_da.csv %g, 37 0'
