Re: create climatological axes

[Ansley Manke <ansley.b.manke@xxxxxxxx>]

Hi Rob,
We just ran into this elsewhere. Ferret sees the discrepancy and marks the
axis as a "subspan modulo" axis, where the span of the axis is smaller 
than the
modulo length.  You can fix it by explicitly defining the modulo length 
to equal
the axis span.  After defining the axis,

  SET AXIS/MODULO=365.2418 my_clim_axis.

We are thinking about whether there is a better way to make the test for
subspan modulo axes.
