Sujata,<br>Create two different climatology data sets, one for 365 days and another for leap year with 366 days.<br>Set up repeated soft links for each year of data set respectively to non-leap years and leap years<br>in analysis period (very easy to do, couple of lines of unix scripts). Create a single grads ctl file <br>
for all these climo years. Open up your total field control field and this climo control file, then you are in business. We did like this at CPC more than two decades ago and we continue to do like this now as we work with daily cdas fields. I hope this helps. Please email me separately if you need further assistance. Good day!<br>

Respected Narapusetty Sir,<br>
<br>
Thanks for prompt reply and willingness to provide<br>
further assistance in my problem. I will go thorugh your<br>
article and then try to solve the problem.<br>
<br>
However, you had solved the problem by<br>
calculating climatology. I am having longterm daily<br>
climatology dataset, so there is no need to calculate climatology.<br>

Hi Dr. Sujata,<br>
<br>
I am happy to see somebody has same problem that I had some time ago. I solved it by estimating the climatology (and thereafter anomalies) using few harmonics.<br>
<br>
I am sure this article is useful in dealing with your problem:<br>

<br>
I am happy to provide further assistance if you have questions.<br>
<br>
Best regards,<br>
