[ncl-talk] issue with gsn_csm_xy

[Laura Fowler]

Hello:
I am totally baffled about the error message I get when using the function
gsn_csm_xy (see error below).

fatal:Argument type mismatch on argument (3) of (gsn_csm_xy) can not coerce

fatal:["Execute.c":8637]:Execute: Error occurred at or near line 263 in
file var3_profile.ncl

Here are the few lines that are causing me trouble:

hres = True

qco_area_avg!0 = "nFixed"

qco_area_avg&nFixed = zFixed

printVarSummary(qco_area_avg)

wks = gsn_open_wks("png","test_mpas")
plot = gsn_csm_xy(wks,qco_area_avg&nFixed,qco_area_avg,hres)

The output from these few lines are:

Variable: qco_area_avg

Type: float

Total Size: 280 bytes

            70 values

Number of Dimensions: 1

Dimensions and sizes: [nFixed | 70]

Coordinates:

            nFixed: [8000..14900]

Number Of Attributes: 2

  _FillValue : 9.96921e+36
  average_op_ncl : dim_avg_n over dimension(s): nLoc

I do not understand where the mismatch between plot and argument (3), i.e.
qco_area_avg comes from?

Thanks for your help,
Laura
