Data files for some examples
2dvertcoords_1.ncl: The first
frame shows the data on the original grid. The second frame shows
the data linearized with a log-lin plot.
2dvertcoords_2.ncl: This
example shows how to generate a cell fill plot by setting
res@cnFillMode = "CellFill",
and outline the cell edges so that you can see the original grid that
the data are on.
2dvertcoords_3.ncl: This
example is similar to the second frame in the first example, except
it shows how to fill the area under the terrain in gray.

Data with 2D vertical coordinates
The examples on this page can also be used for terrain-following plots.
This usually involves 2D arrays that represent the X,Y locations
of your data.
2dvertcoords_1.ncl: The first
frame shows the data on the original grid. The second frame shows
the data linearized with a log-lin plot.
2dvertcoords_2.ncl: This
example shows how to generate a cell fill plot by setting
res@cnFillMode = "CellFill",
and outline the cell edges so that you can see the original grid that
the data are on.
2dvertcoords_3.ncl: This
example is similar to the second frame in the first example, except
it shows how to fill the area under the terrain in gray.
gsn_add_polygon is used to draw the filled gray area, and gsn_add_polyline is used to outline the terrain.
