You have sent the same question before, The reason for no reply is that the question is rather vague.

[1] You can read the variable and use the two-dimensional coordinates latitude(y,x) ; longitude (y,x) to plot vis:


    f = addfile("foo.nc<http://foo.nc>", "r")
    x = f->X                          ; :(time,lev,y,x)
    x at lat2d = f->latitude      ; (y,x)
    x at lon2d = f->longitude


  wks = gsn_open_wks("png","polar")              ; send graphics to PNG file
  res            = True                          ; plot mods desired
  res at gsnPolar   = "NH"                          ; specify the hemisphere


  nt  = 0
  lev = 10
  plot = gsn_csm_contour_map_polar(wks,x(nt,klev,:,:),res)


or, maybe

  plev = 500   ; natural coordinate
  plot = gsn_csm_contour_map_polar(wks,x(nt,{plev},:,:),res)

If you want the polar data regridded then see:
    http://www.ncl.ucar.edu/Applications/ESMF.shtml


Your source grid would be classified as 'curvilinear'.

Your resulting file would ve 'rectilinear'


Good luck

Dear All


How to convert the stereographic projection x-y coordinates to lat lon grids? I have the 2d lat lon coordinates but the variable is in x-y coordinates e.g


temp(time,depth,y,x).


and latitude(y,x) ; longitude (y,x)


Is it poosible to get temp(time,depth,latitude,longitude) from this information?


Thanks
