[ncl-talk] grid_area_avg

Adrian,
Thanks for the information regarding CDO. FTR, this particular file in
question is actually not a WRF file, but rather an HDF-EOS file (I
believe). It is on a curvilinear grid, however, so hopefully CDO can
handle this correctly.
You're right that this kind of subsetting is not correct. I don't know if
you followed the whole thread, but either in an earlier message or a
separate message we were trying to point out that subsetting a lat/lon area
can be done in different ways, depending on what you are trying to do.
>From the script I just included, I was trying to visually show what it
means to select two corners of a lat/lon box, when you are dealing with a
curvilinear grid.
We also pointed to this example, which illustrates three kinds of
subsetting in a graphical fashion:
http://www.ncl.ucar.edu/Applications/latlon_subset.shtml#ex10
http://www.ncl.ucar.edu/Applications/Images/wrf_gsn_10_lg.png
As we are trying to point out, selecting a lat/lon box can have very
different meaning, depending on what you are trying to accomplish, and it
is up to the user to understand what they want. There's also the concept of
passing a lat/lon polygon of any shape, and using gc_inout to do the
subsetting.
When CDO does the subsetting of a curvilinear grid, what exactly is it
selecting? Is there a graphical illustration of what it's doing?
And you are correct there are special situations as you get closer to the
poles, but in this particular case it wasn't clear if the poles were going
to be an issue.
