Answer: No.

I think you are looking for a, say, 25km x 25km global grid.

I suggest looking at the EASE grids: Maybe you can find a data set that contains predefined lat/lon grids.

http://nsidc.org/data/ease

Then, you would have to bin the values.

Good Luck

Hi NCL-Talk,

I am attempting to compute bin the joint distribution of T-RH from climate model output.

ex.

T(lat,lon)  = ((/10,15/),(/5,10/))
RH(lat, lon) = ((/60,50/),(/70,60/))

count = Bin(T= 10, RH = 60) = 2
count = Bin(T= 15, RH =50) = 1
count = Bin(T= 5, RH =70) = 1

Total count = 4

The issue that I am running into is that the grid cell sizes change as latitudes move away from the equator, emphasizing high latitudes vs low latitudes.  I am not aware of an NCL function that accounts for the change in grid cell size while binning data.  Is there one?
