This section is ignored by RIP ifitrajcalc=0. Trajectory calculation mode and use of the &trajcalc namelist are describedin the Calculating and Plotting Trajectories with RIP section and in Chapter 6 of the fullRIP User’s Guide.b. The plot specification tableThe plot specification table (PST) provides user control over particular aspects ofindividual frames and overlays. The basic structure of the PST is as follows. The first lineof the PST is a line of consecutive equal signs. This line, as well as the next two lines, isignored–they are simply a banner that indicates a PST. Following that there are severalgroups of one or more lines separated by a full line of equal signs. Each group of lines isa frame specification group (FSG), because it describes what will appear in a frame. AWRF-NMM V3: User’s Guide 7-30
