[ncl-talk] Hovmueller plot, x axis range adjustment

[Toni Klemm]

Hello all,

I'm trying to plot a time series of data in the form of a Hovmueller plot. However, I have trouble adjusting the x axis such that it shows the range of longitudes correctly. Instead of the longitude range, -105 to -95 degrees East in 0.5 degrees increments, it shows a range from 0 to 18 on the x axis of the plot. Longitudes are included in the netCDF file as variable “lon_zones”. I tried to adjust the x axis range manually using res at trXMinF and res at trXMaxF, but I got this error message: 

warning:ContourPlotSetValues: X coordinates out of data range: defaulting

I used example 5 here (https://www.ncl.ucar.edu/Applications/time_lon.shtml <https://www.ncl.ucar.edu/Applications/time_lon.shtml>) as a template, but I didn’t find an explanation for how the x axis shows longitudes there.

Any help would be much appreciated!

I attached the netCDF file, the plot, and my script. 

Thank you,
Toni
