Re: how to see variables and their dimensions in ncl

Dear Sudheer,

There are 5 arguments in your calling function:
*band_pass_latlon_time* (x(:,{latS:latN},{lonL:lonR}),srate, bpf,
wgty({latS:latN}), opt)

1. x(:,{latS:latN},{lonL:lonR})
2. srate
3. bpf
4. wgty({latS:latN})
5. opt

If you check the menu, there should be only four arguments:
