<br>
Thanks for the suggestion. I have since been told that the data has been conservatively interpolated onto a regular grid from the original triangular grid, so this command may work. Although, I am having trouble understanding exactly what it does. I guess it
is a form of interpolation but I'm not sure what the following means and how I should change this to suit my data:<br>
<br>
</font>
<pre><font size="4"> guess = 1 ; use zonal means
is_cyclic = True ; cyclic [global]
nscan = 1500 ; usually much less than this
eps = 1.e-2 ; variable dependent
relc = 0.6 ; relaxation coefficient
opt = 0 ; not used</font></pre>
<font size="4">and I also have the problem of missing values for the following script, where it complains about missing values at the line including ' zone_int = new((/nlat........':</font><br>

<br>
I have been struggling to calculate Barotropic streamfunction and AMOC using online examples and function but I have recently been told it is due to the fact that the data I use contains missing values, therefore all values are set to the missing value.
<br>
<br>
How can I somehow ignore the missing values during calculation?<br>
<br>
Here is my code for the bartropic streamfunction:</big><br>
