<div>Dear Serena</div><div>Thank you so much for your nice reply.<br>I have another question and I'll be thankful if I could have your help again.</div><div>Does NCL have a script which plots RMSE (or ratio of RMSE or something else related to RMSE), too? Because there is some comments about RMSE at <span><a shape="rect" href="https://www.ncl.ucar.edu/Applications/taylor.shtml" style="color: rgb(25, 106, 212); text-decoration-line: underline; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">https://www.ncl.ucar.edu/Applications/taylor.shtml</a>, but it seems none of the examples show RMSE. However taylor_2.ncl has just drawn its line with</span></div><div><span><span><pre style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); white-space: pre-wrap;"> res@centerDiffRMS = True ; RMS 'circles'
res@centerDiffRMS_color = "LightGray" ; default is "black"</pre></span><div><span>But there is no line to read RMSE in this example.</span></div>I'll be thankful if I hear from you.</span></div><div><span><br></span></div><div><span>Sincerely</span></div><div><span>Ehsan</span></div><div><span><br></span></div><div><br></div>
