    Hi Krishna,<br>
    <br>
    you can use the function <b><tt>closest_val</tt></b> to retrieve an
    index of an value.<br>
    <br>
    <tt>  lat13  =  closest_val(13,lat)</tt><tt><br>
    </tt><tt>  lon80  =  closest_val(80,lon)</tt><br>
    <br>
    <tt>  print("Index: "+lat13+" -  "+lat(lat13))</tt><tt><br>
    </tt><tt>  print("Index: "+lon80+" -  "+lon(lon80))</tt><br>
    <br>
    To plot 2 more grid boxes of lat/lon than you can use e.g.<br>
    <br>
    <tt>  plot = gsn_csm_contour_map(wks,
      var(lat13-2:lat13+2,lon80-2:lon80+2),res)</tt><br>

    Bye,<br>
