<P

This is an artificial example that demonstrates a vertical integration from
a fixed lower bound of 1000mb to the top of the atmosphere, and integrating
a field of all 1's. This gives an answer of 10204.1 (or 100000/9.8) which is
the mass of air (in kg) of a 1 meter squared column when the surface
pressure is 1 bar and the accelleration due to gravity is assumed to be
exactly 9.8m/sec**2 over the entire column.</P>

face="arial, helvetica, sans-serif">Grads is probably having a hard time
figuring out what you mean by 'lev' in the first argument. My guess is
the same numerical values of lev are being used in each of the three
commands. The value is probably 1000, so in effect you are integrating
over progressively deeper layers, which is why you are getting fqu1 <
fqu2 < fqu3 for example. I would try changing the first argument to
something like const(p,1000), const(p,700), const(p,500) etc.</FONT></DIV>
