[gradsusr] wrf output on surface (1000 hPa)

[Eric Altshuler]

Hello Jonathan,

I believe recent versions of ARWpost have a namelist option to extrapolate fields below ground when necessary. (The default is to set data values to missing where the pressure surface is underground.) If you use ARWpost, this is one solution. I think NCL may also be able to do vertical interpolation/extrapolation, but I'm much less familiar with it.

Grad users 

Does anyone know how to interpolate the wrf output the surface (1000 hPa)? 



Right now, where there is high terrain no data is plotted. I know Bob Hart has a script but I could never get it to work and do not understand it. 



Any suggestions? 



Thanks
