mthermogrid
This is the visual definition for specifying how a thermodynamic diagram background is displayed. It controls features related to isotherms, isobars, mixing ratio lines, dry and moist adiabats.
Note
This function performs the same task as the Thermo Grid icon in Metview’s user interface. It accepts its parameters as keyword arguments, described below.
- mthermogrid(**kwargs)
