First thing I'd try is verifying the areal extent of your grids. Make sure you aren't confusing a negative lat/lon for one that should be positive. For example, if your data goes from -90 to +90 longitude, you may have to specify it as 270 to 90.<br>

Hello. I am Jessica and I really appreciate if you help me solve this problem. <br><br>I am running GrADS on LINUX<br><br>I am trying to do a bias of a measured file (<a href="http://08225.30yr.mean.stat.pp.nc" target="_blank">08225.30yr.mean.stat.pp.nc</a>) and a referenced file (8225_ESRL_1960-1990.nc). The problem is that although I am defining the latitude and longitude, an error occurs stating that the grids do not match.<br>
<br>The red part is the error output of GrADS.<br><div><br></div><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 153)">ga -> sdfopen 8225_ESRL_1960-1990.nc</span><br style="color:rgb(0, 0, 153)">
