[ncl-talk] Fwd: Another dimensions problem

[Alan Brammer]

There’s something weird going on with how ncl interprets the lat2d and lon2d attributes.   

If you redefine the attributes in the script as you had commented out.
e.g.
l_obs at lat2d :=  xlat(0,:,:)       ; this is for plotting
l_obs at lon2d := xlon(0,:,:)     ; using gsn_csm routines

When they get written to netcdf they are converted to actual 1d arrays.  While they’re in the script they are in a weird world of being a fake 2d array.  

I’m surprised that NCL doesn’t handle a 1d array and unwrap it accordingly though.  


Good luck.
