Initial tests 17 for the GCR (balanced variable)

• RHS PV is raw data.
• Normal mode / grid hybrid PV - no orthogonalisation between mode 1 and mode 2.
• The first guess is streamfunction after vertical regression (Gp).
• Diagonal preconditioning.
• 5000 iterations (restart 5).
• Mass weighted inner product for GCR coefficients.
• Data location /export/custard/disk-01/ross/PV_Results/GCR_Test/PV/RevisedTest/Hybrid_NoOrthogs_5000

• For each variable, horizontal (long/lat) and vertical (lat/eta) plots are shown.
• For PV variables the extra modes are shown in addition.
• For the horizonal plots, the level is L30 (eta=0.445).
• For the vertical plots, the longitude slice is Greenwich meridian.
• Each field (except for the PV modes) is decomposed into large horiz/small vert (left) and small horiz/large vert (right) scales.
• The plots show the max, min, and mean (calculated by the plotter).
• Plots of balanced pressure have been shown without density scaling in the linear balance equation (to allow us to see the vertical structure). This is for diagnostic purposes only - the actual density scaled pressures are used in the calculations.
