Wind Stress Curl from wind data
% USAGE: curlz=ra_windstrcurl(lat,lon,u,v)
%
% PREREQUISITE:
% ra_windstr.m written by same author
%
% DESCRIPTION: Function to compute wind stress curl from wind field data Based on
% NRSC (2013)
%
% INPUTS:
% lat = Latitude vector [deg.]
% lon = Longitude Vector [deg.]
% u = Zonal wind component [m/s], must be 2D
% v = Meridional wind component [m/s], must be 2D
%
% OUTPUT:
% curlZ = Wind stress curl [N/m^3]
%
% DISCLAIMER:
% Albeit this function is designed only for academic purpose, it can be implemented in
% research. Nonetheless, author does not guarantee the accuracy.
