Re: How to label as decimal latitude and longitude

Hi Yongxin,

There surprisingly does not seem to be an option in NCL that would allow
you to swicth from degrees/minutes->degrees in decimals...

The only way I would know how to do this is to explicitly set the Y and
X axis labels yourself by doing something similar to this:

(array to be plotted = farr)
tmYLMode = "Explicit"
tmYLValues = fspan(min(farr&lat),max(farr&lat),10)
tmYLLabels = tmYLLabels

or

tmYLValues = (/19.0,19.05,19.10,19.15/)

Good luck,
Adam
