I assume you are talking about the fill color for land, which defaults
to gray when you use the gsn_csm_xxxx_map scripts.

If you truly want white, you can set the mpLandFillColor resource
to "white". You must have white already in your colormap for
this to work:

   res_at_mpLandFillColor = "white"

You can also make it transparent:

   res_at_mpLandFillColor = "transparent"

Once you do this, you won't see any map information, however,
so you might want to turn on map outlines:

   res_at_mpOutlineOn = True
