Configuration Options
The following configuration options are available for this task:
[climatologyMapArgoSalinity]
## options related to plotting climatology maps of Global
## salinity at various levels against
## reference model results and the Roemmich-Gilson Argo Climatology
# comparison grid(s)
comparisonGrids = ['latlon']
# Months or seasons to plot (Jan, Feb, Mar, Apr, May, Jun, Jul, Aug, Sep, Oct,
# Nov, Dec, JFM, AMJ, JAS, OND, ANN)
seasons = ['ANN','JFM','JAS']
# list of depths in meters (positive up) at which to analyze, 'top' for the
# sea surface. Argo data is only available above -2000 m
depths = ['top', -25, -50, -100, -150, -200, -400, -600, -800, -1500]

The option depths
is a list of (approximate) depths at which to sample
the salinity field. A value of 'top'
indicates the sea
surface (or the ice-ocean interface under ice shelves) while a value of
'bot'
indicates the seafloor.
