On macOS with the latest Psy-View version displaying the parameter HSURF in the file cdo001_c.nc.zip I get the following figures (upper right wit option "mapplot" lower right with option "plot2d"

Hey @Casthardi! Yes, this is because of the issue, that psyplot currently thinks that lat and lon are on a rotated grid. I'll fix this. In the meantime you can select to use the rlon and rlat variables.

  1. Close the plot by clicking on the HSURF button
  2. Select rlon for the x-coordinate
  3. Select rlat for the y-coordinate
  4. Click the HSURF button again

The same works for the plot2d method

Thanks, this works.

I transfer this issue to psy-maps as this is a problem of the decoding there
