||
Computing streamfunctions | ||
========================= | ||
|
||
Computing the barotropic streamfunction | ||
--------------------------------------- | ||
|
||
The function :py:func:`mpas_tools.ocean.compute_barotropic_streamfunction()` | ||
computes the barotproic streamfunction at vertices on the MPAS-Ocean grid. | ||
The function takes a dataset containing an MPAS-Ocean mesh and another with | ||
``normalVelocity`` and ``layerThickness`` variables (possibly with a | ||
``timeMonthly_avg_`` prefix). The streamfunction is computed only over the | ||
range of (positive-down) depths provided and at the given time index. |
