For now, I want to plot seasonal winds (DJF and JJA). Later on I shall overlay them
on maps.
code snippet
;
;
mres@pmTickMarkDisplayMode = "Always"
mres@tfDoNDCOverlay = True
mres@gsnAddCyclic = False ; regional data
mres@gsnFrame = False ; don't advance frame yet
mres@gsnDraw = False ; don't draw yet
mres@lbLabelBarOn = False ; no individual label bar
mres@vcRefAnnoOrthogonalPosF = -1.0
mres@vcRefMagnitudeF = 10.0
mres@vcRefLengthF = 0.045
mres@vcGlyphStyle = "CurlyVector"
mres@vcMinDistanceF = 0.017
plot = new(4,graphic) ; create a plot array
mres@gsnLeftString = "DJF 1000mb U wind"
plot(0) = gsn_csm_vector_map_ce(wks,ua1_noag_DJF,va1_noag_DJF,mres)
mres@gsnLeftString = "JJA 1000mb U wind"
plot(1) = gsn_csm_vector_map_ce(wks,ua1_noag_JJA,va1_noag_JJA,mres)
