[ncl-talk] ESMF regridding

[Chathurika]

Dear All,




Thank you so much for reading my email and helping me out to solve this issue.




I want to perform the significance test (ttest) over time dimension for the differences of two datasets which have lat[:,:] and lon[:,:] (two dimensional, like WRF). 




 differences = (high resolution - low resolution). 




However, the dimensions of lat and lon are not same. The variable summary is;




Low resolution:

Type: float

Total Size: 54067200 bytes

            13516800 values

Number of Dimensions: 3

Dimensions and sizes: [time | 240] x [j | 220] x [i | 256]

Coordinates: 

            time: [52975.5..60249.5]

            j: [0..219]

            i: [0..255]

Number Of Attributes: 11

  standard_name : sea_surface_height_above_geoid

  long_name : Sea Surface Height Above Geoid

  comment : This is the dynamic sea level, so should have zero global area mean. It should not include inverse barometer depressions from sea ice.

  units : m

  original_name : zos

  cell_methods : area: mean where sea time: mean

  cell_measures : area: areacello

  history : 2019-09-04T15:31:31Z altered by CMOR: replaced missing value flag (-9e+33) and corresponding data with standard missing value (1e+20).

  missing_value : 1e+20

  _FillValue : 1e+20

  coordinates : latitude longitude

*latitude and longitude have two dimensions.




I cannot do ESMF regridding as per it is not allowed to use the all three dimensions (time, lat, lon). I am little confused here, How can I use ESMF regridding and keep the time dimension also. If so, after regridding, I can perform the ttest for the resolution difference.




Please help me and Many many thanks.




Best regards,

Chathu
