Hello, 

Now that I have correctly imported the NetCDF file and set up the kind of
projection I am interested in having the data displayed over I am having
trouble plotting my data with the quiver function. I am interested in
plotting the principal vectors of the stress field onto a Mercator
projection. 
My netcdf file is telling me the following after "ncdump -h"
dimensions:
        nsr_delta = 20 ;
        time = 24 ;
        latitude = 37 ;
        longitude = 73 ;
variables:
        float nsr_delta(nsr_delta) ;
                nsr_delta:units = "" ;
                nsr_delta:long_name = "NSR Surface Delta (mu/(eta*omega))" ;
        float time(time) ;
                time:units = "degrees" ;
                time:long_name = "degrees after periapse" ;
        float latitude(latitude) ;
                latitude:units = "degrees_north" ;
                latitude:long_name = "latitude" ;
        float longitude(longitude) ;
                longitude:units = "degrees_east" ;
                longitude:long_name = "longitude" ;
        float Ttt_D(time, latitude, longitude) ;
                Ttt_D:units = "Pa" ;
                Ttt_D:long_name = "north-south component stress of Diurnal 
stresses" ;
        float Tpt_D(time, latitude, longitude) ;
                Tpt_D:units = "Pa" ;
                Tpt_D:long_name = "shear component of Diurnal stresses" ;
        float Tpp_D(time, latitude, longitude) ;
                Tpp_D:units = "Pa" ;
                Tpp_D:long_name = "east-west component of Diurnal stresses" ;
        float Ttt_N(nsr_delta, latitude, longitude) ;
                Ttt_N:units = "Pa" ;
                Ttt_N:long_name = "north-south component of NSR stresses" ;
        float Tpt_N(nsr_delta, latitude, longitude) ;
                Tpt_N:units = "Pa" ;
                Tpt_N:long_name = "shear component of NSR stresses" ;
        float Tpp_N(nsr_delta, latitude, longitude) ;
                Tpp_N:units = "Pa" ;
                Tpp_N:long_name = "east-west component of NSR stresses" ;

// global attributes:
                :description = "Testing pySatStress on a regular grid" ;
                :history = "Created: Mon Jun 15 12:46:13 2009 using 
pySatStress" ;
                :Conventions = "COARDS" ;
However, when I am strugglingto use the quiver_demo.py as a guide to making
my quiver plot. 
Thanks for any help you can offer. 
Jon
