Re: Odd plots of contours and shading

Hi Mary:

Thank you very much for your help!

The version of the NCL I used is:
 Copyright (C) 1995-2010 - All Rights Reserved
 University Corporation for Atmospheric Research
 NCAR Command Language Version 5.2.0
 The use of this software is governed by a License Agreement.
 See http://www.ncl.ucar.edu/ for more details.

To avoid using the EcoConnectUtils.ncl and other unillity ncl scripts created by us here, I modified the script so as to use only the resources and functions provided by NCL. However, the same problem occurred. I attached the diagram and the script here. I have also used ftp to send the data file on the directed ftp site. The file name is: nzlam-12-orography.nc

If you cannot find the data file, please let me know.

Thank you again!

Ed
