Hello,
I am plotting a map of 2m temperatures over a part of Africa (see graphic
attached). In my mask_specs, the script says
"warning:MapV41DHUpdateDrawList: invalid boundary specification string:
"central-african-republic". There is the same arning for zaire.
The mask_specs I have from the ncl website (mask_4.ncl) are as below.
Can someone advise me how these countries are called for masking?
;mask_specs = (/\

 ;"algeria","angola","angola-exclave-called-cabinda","benin","botswana",\

 ;"burundi","cameroon","central-african-republic","chad","congo","djibouti",\

 ;"egypt","equatorial-guinea","ethiopia","gabon","gambia","ghana","guinea",\
     ;"guinea-bissau","ivory-coast","kenya","lesotho","liberia","libya",\
     ;"madagascar","malawi","mali","mauritania","mauritius","morocco",\

 ;"mozambique","namibia","niger","nigeria","rwanda","senegal","sierra-leone",\

 ;"somalia","south-africa","sudan","swaziland","tanzania","togo","tunisia",\
     ;"uganda","upper-volta","western-sahara","zaire","zambia","zimbabwe"/)
