[ncl-talk] Fwd: Query

[Mary Haley]

Kunal,

You need to look at your code more carefully before you send it to ncl talk.

You are reading the same variable twice:

ncl 7> ts = in->TotCH4_A(:,:)
ncl 8> oro = in->TotCH4_A(:,:)

You need to look at your file and determine what the correct name of the
"oro" variable is, and use this and not "TotCH4".

You can see a list of all variable names on the file by typing:

print(getfilevarnames(in))

If it's still not clear which variable to use, then typing:

print(in)

will give you more idea about the contents of the file.

You can also use "ncl_filedump", but you need to run this from the UNIX
command line, and not from the "ncl" interactive prompt:


ncl_filedump /home/kunal/14-01.nc

--Mary
