X 10 deg. lon) polar stereographic projection but I want to mask out the continents. I tried masking my data using <i>landsea_mask</i> but this masks out some of the ocean points as well (because of the coarse resolution of my grid). I'm wondering if there are any plotting resources to simply avoid plotting data over the continents? </div><div><br></div><div>Thanks,</div><div>Nisha</div><div><br></div><div>P.S I also tried gsn_csm_contour_map_overlay to overlay the NCL 1X1 degree landsea_mask file directly onto my map. This works better but I am forced to use the same color table. I'd like the continents to have a dull grey color which is completely different from the color table I'm using for plotting my data.</div><div><br></div><div><br></div></div>
