Re: [ferret_users] white line from "go fland"



Hi Martin,
I'm not seeing what you describe. The modulo behavior of the longitude axis of the dataset shouldn't affect the land overlay.  Does the same thing happen if you use one of the coarser etopo datasets, say

go fland 20

several of the datasets we release with Ferret have X axes that run from 20 E to 380E so that they split along a line that runs mostly through continents for convenience when working with oceanographic data. etopo20 and etopo60 are like this; but etopo05 has its x axis starting at 0, so even if something funny were happening with the modulo x axis, it shouldn't be happening with etopo05. I'm perplexed about what's causing the line you see.

yes? use etopo05
yes? sh grid rose
    GRID GOZ1
 name       axis              # pts   start                end
 ETOPO05_X LONGITUDE         4320mr   0E                   0.079987W
 ETOPO05_Y LATITUDE          2161 r   90S                  90N

Hi,
with ferret 6.07 I get a disturbing white line at 20 E
in my plots.

use "http://www.ifremer.fr/cgi-bin/nph-dods/data/satellite/medspiration/l4uhrsstfnd/eurdac/med/2007/322/20071118-EUR-L4UHFnd-MED-v01.nc"
can axis/modulo lon
set win/asp=.5 1
shade SST_FOUNDATION
go fland 5

Saving the data and making the same plot with old 5.41 (AIX),
the plot is correct.

ferret adds the modulo flag to the x-axis (lon). This is
the reason to cancel axis/modulo, but this does not help.

Changing the aspect ratio to .51, the error disappears. One could
live with this workaround, but something seems to be wrong
here.

Greetings,
Martin
