It's a very good idea. Looking for a link between potential vorticity
and rainfall in certain areas of the globe. Unfortunately, the best
datasets for the two variables come from different projects by
different agencies. If I line contour the vorticity and shade the
rainfall, it should highlight the dynamics of the atmospheric state
without too much visual clutter.... I have done it for a couple of
other situations, fortunately on the same grids, and it's quite
informative! :o)
What I need is some ideas on how to do the contour plots, as my
current method has incompatible x,y,z coordinates due to the grid
mismatches (I think).
Any help from Coyote gratefully received as always. Followed by
payment to Doctors Without Borders, if that's still charity of choice?
Regards
Tess
