Re: Where oh where

I suppose you can string a few where's together until you have the
conditions required for your polynomial

var = where(t_ref2m .lt. condition1 .or. t_ref2m .gt. condition2, missing,
t_ref2m)

Then do another variation using rh:
var1 = where(rh .gt. rhcondition1 .or. rh .lt. condition2, missing, rh)

temp = ind(where(.not.ismissing(var) .and. .not.ismissing(var1), 1, 0))

do polynomial computation using the arrays rh(temp) and t_ref2m(temp) where
temp represents only the eements of the array that satisfy your conditions
you defined in var and var1.

Does that make sense?
