+# Scientific Objective
+# --------------------
+#
+# To plot tendencies of temperature, moisture, and wind components averaged over 
+# a time window and spatial domain.  Tendencies are partitioned into physics 
+# parameterizations and dynamics.  Physics parameterizations include schemes like 
+# deep convection, convective gravity wave drag, short wave radiation, plantetary
+# boundary layer, microphysics, and others.  Non-physics tendencies (or dynamics)
+# are due to horizontal and vertical motion.  The residual (which should be zero)
+# is the difference between the actual change in the state variable over the
+# requested time window and the expected change due to physics parameterizations
+# and dynamics tendencies.  One can plot a single tendency component at multiple
+# pressure levels or plot all tendency components at a single pressure level.
+# This use case illustrates how to generate plan views (horizontal cross
+# sections). The METplotpy source code is needed to generate the plot.  
+# Clone the METplotpy repository (https://github.com/dtcenter/METplotpy) under the same base
+# directory as the METPLUS_BASE directory so that the METplus and
+# METplotpy directories are under the same base directory (i.e. if the METPLUS_BASE directory is
+# /home/username/working/METplus, then clone the METplotpy source
+# code into the /home/username/working directory).  
+
+##############################################################################
+# Datasets
+# --------
+#
+#  * Forecast dataset: FV3 3-D history file with physics and dynamics tendencies
+#  * Grid specification: FV3 2-D grid specification file with latitude and longitude of each grid point
+#
+#  **Location:** All of the input data required for this use case can be
+#  found in the met_test sample data tarball. Click here to the METplus
+#  releases page and download sample data for the appropriate release:
+#  https://github.com/dtcenter/METplus/releases
+#  The tarball should be unpacked into the directory that you will set
+#  the value of INPUT_BASE. See the "Running METplus" section below for more
+#  information.
+
+
+##############################################################################
+# External Dependencies 
+# ---------------------
+# You will need to use a versio of Python 3.86 that has the following packages

+# METplus Configuration
+# ---------------------
+#
+# METplus first loads all of the configuration files found in

+# MET Configuration
+# -----------------

+# No MET tools are used in this use case.
+#
+# METplus sets environment variables based on user settings in the METplus

+# Running METplus
+# ---------------
+#
+# This use case can be run in the following way: 
+#
+# 1) Passing in UserScript_fcstFV3_fcstOnly_PhysicsTendency_Planview.conf
+# then a user-specific system configuration file::
+#
+#        run_metplus.py /path/to/METplus/parm/use_cases/model_applications/short_range/UserScript_fcstFV3_fcstOnly_PhysicsTendency_Planview.conf  /path/to/user_system.conf
+#
+# 2) Modifying the configurations in parm/metplus_config, then passing in
+# UserScript_fcstFV3_fcstOnly_PhysicsTendency_Planview.conf::
+#
+#        run_metplus.py /path/to/METplus/parm/use_cases/model_applications/short_range/UserScript_fcstFV3_fcstOnly_PhysicsTendency_Planview.conf
+#
+# The former method is recommended. Whether you add them to a user-specific
+# configuration file or modify the metplus_config files, the following
+# variables must be set correctly:
+#
+# * **INPUT_BASE** - Path to directory where sample data tarballs are
+#   unpacked (See Datasets section to obtain tarballs). This is not required
+#   to run METplus, but it is required to run the examples in parm/use_cases
+# * **OUTPUT_BASE** - Path where METplus output will be written. This must
+#   be in a location where you have write permissions
+# * **MET_INSTALL_DIR** - Path to location where MET is installed locally
+#
+# Example User Configuration File::
+#
+#   [dir]
+#   INPUT_BASE = /path/to/sample/input/data
+#   OUTPUT_BASE = /path/to/output/dir
