Specifies the operator to be used in the formula. The options are as follows:

OperatorDescription
+Addition
-Subtraction
*Multiplication
/Division
^Power
>Larger Than
<Smaller Than
>=Larger or Equal
<=Smaller or Equal
=Equal
<>Not equal
andConjunction
orDisjunction

Remember that the logical operators (last 4 lines) return data which is either 1 (result is true) or 0 (result is false).

...

When Application is set to f(F) the available options are as follows:

FunctionDescription
--negative of the input
notnegation of input : returns 0 where input values are non-zero, 1 otherwise
sgnsign of the input : -1 where input is negative, 1 where positive, 0 where null
intinteger part of the input
absabsolute part of the input
sqrtsquare root of the input
lognatural logarithm of the input
log10logarithm base 10 of the input
expexponential of the input
sinsine of input (must be in radians)
coscosine of input (must be in radians)
tantangent of input (must be in radians)
asinarc sine of input (must be in radians)
acosarc cosine of input (must be in radians)
atanarc tangent of input (must be in radians)
coslatcosine of the latitude of the input grid points
sinlatsine of the latitude of the input grid points
countthe number of fields within the input
meanmean field of the input. Apply to GRIB input only
rmsroot mean square field of the input. Apply to GRIB input only
stdevstandard deviation field of the input. Apply to GRIB input only
sumsum field of the input
varvariance field of the input. Apply to GRIB input only

Note that some options apply only to GRIB icon input.

...

When Application is set to f(F,G) the available options are as follows:

FunctionDescription
maxreturns the maximum of the two input elements: a GRIB/Geopoints of the maximum of the input GRIB/Geopoints at each grid point or location. Output GRIB data contain the same number of fields as the maximum is taken on a field by field basis
minas above but returning the minimum
covarreturns a GRIB field equal to the covariance of the input fieldsets. Apply only to GRIB input
divreturns the integer result of division of F by G
mergereturns a single GRIB fieldset composed of all the fields in the input GRIB fieldsets. Apply only to GRIB input
modreturns the result of F modulo G
interpolatereturns a set of Geopoints at the locations of the Geopoints specified by G, with values calculated by interpolation at those points from the first field of fieldset F


When Application is set to f(F,x) or f(x,F) the available options are as follows:



maxreturns the maximum of the two input elements: a GRIB/Geopoints of the maximum of the input GRIB/Geopoints at each grid point or location and the specified location. Output GRIB data contain the same number of fields as the maximum is taken on a field by field basis
minas above but returning the minimum
