RE: [ncl-talk] coordinate subscripting

Dear Sylvia,

The domain I want in my data is from 40West to 20East, which correspond to
points from :
320 to 360
and
360 (i.e 0) to 20
The problem is that my data longitude is not monotonic. So I can't just
extract the domain I want. I suppose I could extract both arrays
y1 = x({320:360},{minLat:maxLat}) and
y2 = x({0:20},{minLat:maxLat}) and then concatenate y1 and y2 into a
variable y. Only thing is that I am not sure how to concatenate y1 and y2.

Regards, Marjolaine.

M,

you certainly can use coordinate subscripting. This method is dependent
upon what your coordinates look like. if your coordinates go from -180 to
+180 then you need to use those values while coordinate subscripting. if,
as in your case, they go from 0 to 360 you need to use those values.

for example

y = x({-20:20},{270:360})

in your case you need to mentally convert the region you want into
360-mode and then subscript.

to do it with coordinate subscripting? What would you suggest is the best
way to extract my domain?
