[MITgcm-support] accessing diagnostic values

Hi Nikole,

In the data.diagnostics, frequency(n) is the time average frequency
if it's positive. It can also be snapshot frequency if it's negative (or
0 means output every time step).

The diagnostics output is defined by the filename(n), which is a
4D array. If you want to access THETA, the you load 'UWTave.0000...'
and theta=UWTave(:,:,:,1).

I am not sure what you meant "access some of the diagnostic calculation".
Do you mean using the time averaged theta over frequency(1) during
runtime? If this is what you meant, it is more convenient to use the
dynamic variables defined in "timeave" package. You will need to include 
the
header file "TIMEAVE_STATV.h", where you can see "thetatave" etc.  The
time average frequency is defined by "taveFreq" in "data" file.

Hope this help.

Cheers,
Yuan
