Re: [ferret_users] calculation of cyclonic heat potential using ferret

["William S. Kessler" <William.S.Kessler@xxxxxxxx>]

Hi Praveen -

This and many such questions have been discussed in the Ferret Users  
group, which has searchable archives. I urge you to become familiar  
with this resource, which shows how to solve many problems with  
detailed examples.

The searchable archives are at: http://ferret.pmel.noaa.gov/static/ 
Ferret_search/ferret_mail_archives.html

In this case, I searched for "integrate isotherm"; the third message  
has exactly what you need:
