<div style="direction:ltr;font-family:Tahoma;color:#000000;font-size:10pt">Hi,<br>
<br>
I want plot data from a larger domain to compare the output [low resolution] with results from a smaller grid [high resolution] for the same location..<br>
The larger domain is the parent to the smaller domain (ratio 20:4). I want to extract data from the large grid just for the grid cells where the smaller domain is located and plot data to compare the results as if I am have results from the same grid at two
different resolutions.<br>
<br>
I defined the coordinates for the smaller domain (on the parent grid) and I am able to have the map background around the small grid only. However, my script plots data from across the whole parent grid *Not just for the grid cells defined* in the coordinates..<br>
<br>
Any help on how I can do this please.. I want the plotted data for the small grid ONLY?<br>
(See attached code in the script please)<br>
<br>
<br>
Thank you,<br>
Wiston <br>
