[ncl-talk] weird color shown in plots

[Ming Chen]

Rick,

Thank you for getting back to me quickly. I just type 'module load ncl' 
to enable ncl in cheyenne.   The command "module list" shows

Currently Loaded Modules:
   1) ncarenv/1.2    3) ncarcompilers/0.4.1   5) netcdf/4.6.1   7) 
nco/4.7.4   9) ncview/2.1.7
   2) intel/17.0.1   4) mpt/2.19              6) xxdiff/4.0.1   8) 
ncl/6.5.0  10) grib-bins/1.1

The command  "echo $NCARG_ROOT"  yields 
"/glade/u/apps/ch/opt/ncl/6.5.0/intel/17.0.1"

I notice this issue because the plots in my desktop and the plots in 
cheyenne are different when I run the same NCL script and process the 
same data.

Thanks.

Ming
