Rotate pole problem

Added by Wle Pa almost 8 years ago

Hello,

Lets say there is a regular grid lat x lon = 48 x 96.
I want to rotate the grid so the north pole matches the north geomagnetic pole (e.g. lat = 75, lon = 260).

remapbil rotates the grid, but does not place the pole where it should be (75,260).
The rotation doesn't show any sensitivity to changing the lon of the rotated pole.

The grid description file that I use is:
gridtype = lonlat
xsize = 96
ysize = 48
xfirst = 0
xinc = 3.75
yfirst = -90
yinc = 3.75
xnpole = 260
ynpole = 75

and the command is:
cdo remapbil,file_above in.nc out.nc

Am I doing something wrong?

Thank you
