I'd say they want you to examine the resolution of your input and output data, in case the interpolation could be judged, er, 'optimistic'. For instance, if I had data on a 5° grid, I could easily interpolate it onto a 0.5° grid, but there are implications
because you're not inventing new data, you're still stuck with the 5° data but on a finer grid.</div>

<div dir="ltr">Dear NCL group,<br>
</div>
<div dir="ltr">I hope you're doing great.</div>
<div dir="ltr">I have a general question and I hope I could have your help, as usual.</div>
<div dir="ltr">In one paper I wrote "<span><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-size:12.0pt; line-height:200%; font-family:"Times New Roman",serif">The interpolation was done using the bilinear method in NCL (NCAR Command Language)</span></span>". Actually, I interpolated
some grid precipitation products on gauged stations using "linint2_points" from NCL.</div>
<div dir="ltr">The referee commented "<span><span style="font-size:8.5pt; line-height:107%; font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif; color:black">With how many points? Please discuss also the spatial scale resolution differences in products and interpolation implications.</span></span>"</div>
<div dir="ltr">I wanna reply "<span><span style="font-size:11.0pt; line-height:107%; font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif">As mentioned in the paper, we used NCL in the most programming. NCL has a function named linint2_points which interpolates from a rectilinear
grid to an unstructured grid using bilinear interpolation based on the four closest grid points to a particular (x, y) coordinate pair.</span></span>" However, I don't know how reply to the part of discussing about different spatial resolution. May I ask some
help about that, please?</div>
