[gradsusr] Find maximum at a point over a time period.

[Davide Sacchetti]

suppose you fixed X and Y at your location
suppose you have 41 time steps (actually your are much more but it's the
same)

first question

        ga-> d max(t2,t=1,t=41)   
        MAXing.  dim = 3, start = 1, end = 41
        Result value = 295.123 
so you got max value

        ga-> d maxloc(t2,t=1,t=41)
        MAXLOCing.  dim = 3, start = 1, end = 41
        Result value = 19 
so you got when: maximum occured at t = 19


second question

suppose you want to find out how many times your T exceeded 292K (eg.: 5
times)
      * maskout(t2,t2-292) shows you only values > 292
      * const(maskout(t2,t2-292),1) shows you '1' only when values > 292
      * const(const(maskout(t2,t2-292),1),0,-u) shows you '1' only when
        values > 292, 0 otherwise
      * sum(const(const(maskout(t2,t2-292),1),0,-u),t=1,t=41) is your
        answer
        
        ga-> d sum(const(const(maskout(t2,t2-292),1),0,-u),t=1,t=41)
        SUMing.  dim = 3, start = 1, end = 41
        Result value = 5 
        
it should help ...
bye bye
