HI Adam,

 

Thanks for the clarification. That’s exactly what I was looking for ☺

Hi Marston,

I believe NCL will always assign linear contours, but you can always alter that behavior by explicitly setting the contour levels yourself:

res at cnLevelSelectionMode = "ExplicitLevels"

res at cnLevels = (/.0000001,.000001,.00001,0.0001,.001,.01,.1,1,10/)

 

If that isn't what you are after let ncl-talk know..

Hi,

 

I’m trying to plot some ice water path expressed in kg/m^2, which range from 1.0e-7 to 5. Here, the distribution of the IWP is skewed towards the lower end of this range.

However, a simple plot in NCL using fails to highlight the different gradients in the data. Is there a way to plot such data using a logarithmic scale?

 

Best,

/M
