MATLAB: Back-calculating a variable in equation to give a value of zero

I have a non linear equation with many variables that run through a column array. I am trying to backcalulate the value of one of the variable that would produce a value of zero at each output of the column array. I am using root2d function, which is working fine, but I am only getting the last value. I am not sure how to save the output at each increment of j because the function runs througha for loop and doesn't stop till the last value. I would like the output of my variable rd to be spit out as a column or row array for each increment. Here is what I am doing:

%Calling the function
fun =@root2d;
rd0 = [0.05];
rd = fsolve(fun,rd0)

%loading input and defining variables
function F=root2d(rd)
load 'S71'
depr1=S71.Depth;
qdynr=S71.qdyn;
Velr=S71.velr;
dec2r=S71.dec;
phicv=34;
Q=6;
R=1;
V50=1;
Nkt=12;
c0=300;
c1=0.46;
c2=2.96;
gammap=8;   %in kN/m3
k0=0.5;
chmin=0.031; 
%for loop inside the function
for j=9:numel (depr1)  
    pm(j)=gammap*((1+2*k0)/3)*depr1(j);
    V(j)=(Velr(j)*0.04375)/chmin;
    strainterm(j)=1/(1+(V(j)/V50));
    pm (j)
    strainterm(j)
    V(j)
    qdynr(j)
F= qdynr(j)-(((Nkt*0.5*((6*sin(phicv))/(3-sin(phicv)))*exp(Q-1/rd)))+strainterm (j)*((((c0*(pm(j)^c1)*exp(rd*c2))-(Nkt*0.5*((6*sin(phicv))/(3-sin(phicv))))*exp(Q-1/rd)))));
end
end
