The Average View Editor
Bottom Level
Specifies the lower limit of the average cross section, as a pressure level (hPa) or model level (η levels).
Top Level
Specifies the upper limit of the average cross section, as a pressure level (hPa) or model level (η levels).
Vertical Scaling
Specifies the type of vertical axis - Linear or Logarithmic.
Interpolate Values
Specifies whether to interpolate vertically the cross-section values into a regular set of interpolated vertical levels. Choosing not to interpolate returns a cross section data matrix with values at the original levels.
Note - if you need to use the cross section data in calculations further down the stream you should not interpolate.
Area
Specifies the coordinates of the area over which the average profile is calculated. Enter coordinates (lat/long) of an area separated by a "/" (top left lat and long, bottom right lat and long). Alternatively, use the coordinate assist button.
Direction
Specifies the direction along which the averaging of the variable is performed. Options are North South and East West. For North South, the averaging is weighted by cos(latitude).
Horizontal Axis
Specifies the plotting attributes of the horizontal axis. An Axis Plotting icon can be dropped here.
Vertical Axis
Specifies the plotting attributes of the vertical axis. An Axis Plotting icon can be dropped here.
