I don't know why it would say gsn_csm_contour_map_other, but it looks like your variable wv1 in the line
 plot = gsn_csm_contour_map(wks,wv1,res)

has more than 2 dimensions. Try printVarSummary(wv1) to see, probably you'll need something like plot = gsn_csm_contour_map(wks,wv1(0,:,:),res)

Hi All,

I'm trying to read and display a sample MODIS data I've downloaded to begin to understand how to manipulate this data with NCL for my dissertation and I keep getting error. Pls see below.

I attach my script. Thanks
