Re: Band Pass filter to dataset with topographic masking

Dear Dennis,

For my case, the data contains the missing value at some grid-points where the masking is applied.
But the time-series at other grid-points don't contain any missing value.
So, according to your reply, "band_pass_latlon_time" should do the filtering at those grid-points.
But, it shows only the warning:
(0) band_pass_latlon_time: currently, missing data not allowed: nMsg=2042644.

There is no output from the script.

I am using NCL ver:5.2.2 and the part of my script is as follows:

spd = 1
bpf = (/20,100,201/)

optLatLon = False
filt_latlon = band_pass_latlon_time (x, spd, bpf, optLatLon)
printVarSummary(filt_latlon)

Kindly, suggest me whether I have done any mistake or not.
I hope to hear you soon.

With regards,
Abhik.

I answered this before (Jan 12, 2013).
I am not sure what more I can say.

For each grid point, the time series is operated upon
by (say) a FFT or, optionally, a weighted running average.

If the time series of values contains one or more missing values,
a band pass filter can not be performed.

As noted before, if you want values at grid points where u850
is _FillValue, you must provide them.

If you are applying "band_pass_latlon_time" I think it provide a warning
message that grid points have time series with missing values.
I thing it still does the computations at al grid points where
there are valid time series.

Good luck
