Vorticity calculation
Ferret users:
I need to calculate relative or total vorticity from a wind field in
curvilinear coordinates. Is there a straight forward of accomplishing
this in ferret? The netcdf schema of my output and the wind fields are
included below.

u:units = "m/s" ;
float v(time, sigma_level, i_dot, j_dot) ;
v:long_name = "V COMPONENT OF HORIZONTAL WIND" ;
v:units = "m/s" ;
