Hi Adam,
Thanks for suggestion.
I tried it and as far as I can tell, it had no effect.
I think this is because the polymarker statement is:
gsn_polymarker(wks,plot,lon_new,lat_new,gsres)
so it has to put the polymarkers on "plot," right?
And the overlays mean "plot" is overlaid, right?
Cheers,
-Lesley
