I would like to copy TRMM data into a global array:<br>
<br>
printVarSummary of my TRMM data shows:<br>
<br>
Variable: precip<br>
Type: float<br>
Total Size: 2304000 bytes<br>
576000 values<br>
Number of Dimensions: 2<br>
Dimensions and sizes: [lon | 1440] x [lat | 400]<br>
Coordinates:<br>
lon: [-179.875..179.875]<br>
lat: [-49.875..49.875]<br>
Number Of Attributes: 5<br>
_FillValue : -9999.9<br>
units : mm<br>
long_name : Daily accumulated precipitation (combined microwave-IR)<br>
estimate with gauge calibration over land<br>
coordinates : lat lon<br>
average_op_ncl : dim_avg_n over dimension(s): ncl_join<br>
<br>
<br>
I would like to put the TRMM data (limited between the latitudes<br>
-49.875 to 49.875 into an array between the latitudes -89.875 to<br>
89.875. printVarSummary of my output TRMM data shows:<br>
<br>
Variable: data<br>
Type: float<br>
Total Size: 4147200 bytes<br>
1036800 values<br>
Number of Dimensions: 2<br>
Dimensions and sizes: [lon | 1440] x [lat2 | 720]<br>
Coordinates:<br>
lon: [-179.875..179.875]<br>
lat2: [-89.875..89.875]<br>
Number Of Attributes: 1<br>
_FillValue : 9.96921e+36<br>
<br>
<br>
I tried the following. To put precip into data, I tried:<br>
data(:,{-49.875:49.875}) = precip(:,{-49.875:49.875})<br>
or<br>
data(:,{lat2|-49.875:49.875}) = precip(:,{lat|-49.875:49.875})<br>
<br>
but it is not working. The last error I get is:<br>
<br>
fatal:syntax error: line 59 in file<br>
global_mean.precipitation_<wbr>minus_TRMM-3B42.ncl before or near lat2<br>
data(:,{lat2<br>
<br>
<br>
After looking at the documentation, I am not sure what I am doing wrong.<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
Laura<br>
