[ncl-talk] Contour plot with rotated grid shifted to the west

I tried the script of Karin but still have issues. Since the bounds are not correctly computed the data are not correctly represented, as you can see in the following.
I’m still convinced, though, that the data are correct since when I first ran the model I chose a rotation with center (-36 deg lon,45 deg lat) and left corner (-20 deg lon, -10 deg lat). Thus, the rotated pole has the correct coordinates (140 deg lon, 45 deg lat) since 140+36=180 and 45+45=90. If you take a look at rlat and rlon, that I printed with ncl_filedump, you can clearly see that in the rotated framework lat and lon both start from -10 (-9.962) and -20 degrees (360-340).

However, the first image that I attached was referring to an older simulation, this is the correct one.
Strangely enough, Panoply is able to plot the data just using rlon,rlat and the center of the rotated pole provided in the data file (I didn’t change anything to produce the following picture).

> Hey David,
> yes, the image that I attached in the first email was supposed to represents the final result. I know the “real” coordinate bounds just because I wrote a binary file directly from the postprocessing of the model with the real 2-D lat-lon coordinates in the native grid. Then, I printed the minimum and maximum of those data. Funny thing is that I wasn’t able to use these coordinates for my plot since they were somewhat randomly organized, still don’t know why (probably some fortran way of writing data…). However, the numbers that I attached in the first plot were not correct. These are the correct ones:

> lon_max 25.00719
> lat_min 27.55382
> lat_max 67.51249
