Could u please provide a reference?
Commonly, satellite data are the center of a grid box. The data are at 0.25
resolution
The amsre_1.ncl script uses lon: [0.125..359.875]. So, the first longitude
is 0.5*(0.0+0.25)=0.125.
Your suggestion would lead to [ 0..359.75]. So, the first longitude would
be the result of
0.5*(-0.125+0.125) [==>0.5*(359.875+0.125)].
