You will not be able to get NCL to draw anything outside of the data coordinates. Thus, short of interpolating your data to a different grid, I believe your only choice would be to try different map projections and map limits. This will only truly be done via trial-and-error. You will want to set mpProjection along with various mpLimitMode related resources. (You are already setting mpMinLatF/mpMaxLatF/<wbr>mpMinLonF/mpMaxLonF with mpLimitMode = "LatLon" (the default)., and plotting on a cylindrical equidistant projection (again, the default).)</div><div><br></div><div>The NCL examples website has numerous examples. <a href="http://www.ncl.ucar.edu/Applications/" target="_blank">http://www.ncl.ucar.edu/<wbr>Applications/</a>, specifically see the Map Projections examples. As you stated that your data is on a Lambert grid, you might want to start with the Lambert Conformal examples. </div><div><br></div><div>Hope that helps.
