How the result is displayed is entirely dependent on your dimension environment settings. If you want a spatial plot, then make sure your x (lon) and y (lat) dimensions are varying rather than fixed.<br><br>Jeff<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">

Thank you. BUt if i set one specific level (say 500mb) and perform finite diference, i find a straight line!<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Sun, May 6, 2012 at 6:44 PM, Jeff Duda <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:jeffduda319@gmail.com" target="_blank">jeffduda319@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>
