[ncl-talk] missing values in multidimensional array

[Dennis Shea]

To me, the question is ambiguous. Are you looking for the subscripts and
time/locations where _FillValue occur?

https://www.ncl.ucar.edu/Document/Functions/Built-in/ind_resolve.shtml
https://www.ncl.ucar.edu/Document/Functions/Built-in/ndtooned.shtml

x(time,lat,lon)

if (*any* <https://www.ncl.ucar.edu/Document/Functions/Built-in/num.shtml>(*ismissing*(x)))
then
      nmsg = num(ismissing(x))
      print("nmsg="+nmsg)

      x1D = *ndtooned*
<https://www.ncl.ucar.edu/Document/Functions/Built-in/ndtooned.shtml>(x)
      i1D = *ind*
<https://www.ncl.ucar.edu/Document/Functions/Built-in/ind.shtml>(*ismissing*(x1D))
      i   = *ind_resolve*(i1D, *dimsizes*
<https://www.ncl.ucar.edu/Document/Functions/Built-in/dimsizes.shtml>(x)
)
      printVarSummary(i)

 *     print* <https://www.ncl.ucar.edu/Document/Functions/Built-in/print.shtml>(x&time(i(:,0))
+"  "+ x&lat(i(:,1)) +"  "+x&lon(i(:,2)) )
      *delete* <https://www.ncl.ucar.edu/Document/Functions/Built-in/delete.shtml>([/
x1D, i1D/]))     ; no longer needed
else

      print("There are no _FillValue"))

end if

There is a very useful NCL tutorial at:

Good luck
