Use the gsn_csm_contour(*) function to create the second plot, and then overlay:

> map1 = gsn_csm_contour_map(wks, data1, res1)
>map2 = gsn_csm_contour(wks,data2,res2)
>overlay(map1, map2)

This is demonstrated in a number of examples on the 'overlay plot' examples page.

Hi there,

Since we are not allowed to use any gsn_csm_*_map plotting functions to create the 2nd input in overlay, so how can we overlay two polar maps? Any trick?

Say the base is the Antarctic ice, and the second one is the mask both at polar region, and I would like to use the second plot overlay on to the first plot.

Cheers,

Arnold
